This essay examines expressions of retribution in “Vengeances,” Book VI of Agrippa d’Aubigne’s seven-book epic, Les Tragiques (1616). Early modern registers of vengeance provide contexts for the ways in which Aubigne navigates a self-proclaimed duty and desire to see that justice is served, in both earthly and celestial realms. Early modern vengeance, it is argued here, can best be understood in performative terms. As this essay demonstrates, verse is a filter through which Aubigne makes manifest his desire for retribution.

在 Agrippa d'Aubigné 的 Les Tragiques 中表演复仇

本文考察了 Agrippa d'Aubigne 的七卷史诗《悲惨世界》（Les Tragiques，1616 年）的第六卷“复仇”中的报应表达。现代早期的复仇记录为奥比涅自诩履行职责和渴望正义在尘世和天界得到伸张的方式提供了背景。在这里争论的早期现代复仇最好用表演术语来理解。正如这篇文章所表明的，诗歌是一个过滤器，奥比涅通过它表达了他对报复的渴望。
