Unreferenced statements
edit- "Most modernists disdained the villanelle, which became associated with the overwrought formal aestheticism of the 1890s, i.e., the decadent movement in England. In his 1914 novel A Portrait of the Artist as a Young Man, James Joyce includes a villanelle written by his protagonist Stephen Dedalus."
- Now cited. MasterOfHisOwnDomain (talk)
- "William Empson revived the villanelle more seriously in the 1930s, and his contemporaries and friends W. H. Auden and Dylan Thomas also picked up the form. Theodore Roethke and Sylvia Plath wrote villanelles in the 1950s and 1960s, and Elizabeth Bishop wrote a particularly famous and influential villanelle, "One Art," in 1976."
- Cited first part (Empson); the rest are kind of cited by being listed as Examples, although I can cite them as usual if you think that's needed. MasterOfHisOwnDomain (talk)
- Came across an easy list of them, and cited that therefore. MasterOfHisOwnDomain (talk) 22:53, 23 February 2014 (UTC)

edit- What does the picture have to do with villanelles?
- It's a depiction of a pastoral scene, which is what early villanelles were initially known for. Do you think making that more obvious would work, or remove altogether? (I'm a stickler for at least one image per article). MasterOfHisOwnDomain (talk)
- Yeah, making it more obvious will work. When I saw the picture, I had no idea what it had to do with villanelles. buffbills7701 01:47, 24 February 2014 (UTC)
- Fair enough. Attempted to make it more clear, hope that's okay. MasterOfHisOwnDomain (talk) 19:22, 24 February 2014 (UTC)
