The aim of this paper is to discuss the treatment French poets give of melancholy in the second half of the 18th century, mostly those who are especially concerned with such sentiment, like Colardeau, Feutry, Bonnard, Malfilâtre, Légouvé, Léonard, Bertin, Parny and Thomas. The most frequent form used to that effect was elegy, named "la plaintive elegie" by a fine critic of French poetry, Roberrt Sabatier. Far from being that old morbid, "noire mélancolie" close to madness which would lead the sufferer to utter destruction, now it is the emergence, at the beginning of a new century, of a new sentiment, namely "mélancolie douce". Finally, we offer a few instances of the most relevant poems, with their Spanish translations.
