A LITERARY SYMBOL


 Mysterious, majestic, and even maligned as vain, the peacock actually has an anthology of literary texts dedicated to it that range from Antiquity to the early 20th century. Marie-Pierre Fougerouse selected and compiled the texts which appear in her book, Le Paon: un chef d'oeuvre vivant.



Vocabulary
la traîne du paon:  the long tail feathers of the male peacock
