Summary "L’occasion perdue recouverte" by Pierre Corneille is a poem written in the mid-17th century. The text revolves around the romantic entanglements between Lisandre and Cloris, showcasing themes of desire, seduction, and the complexities of love. The poem is known for its explicit nature and has been attributed to Corneille but is surrounded by controversy regarding its true authorship. The beginning of the poem introduces Lisandre, a lovesick man who approaches Cloris with an ardent desire that leads them into a secret encounter. As Cloris finds herself overwhelmed by Lisandre's passionate advances, an unexpected turn of events leads to a moment of impotence for Lisandre, complicating their romantic engagement and triggering feelings of shame and confusion. This dynamic sets the stage for further exploration of love’s trials, with Lisandre expressing his deep affection for Cloris while grappling with feelings of failure and the societal weight of their actions.
