Durance

The Durance (French pronunciation: ​[dyʁɑ̃s]; Durença in the Occitan classical norm or Durènço in the Mistralian norm) is a major river in Southeastern France. A left tributary of the Rhône, it is 323.2 km (200.8 mi) long. Its drainage basin is 14,472 km2 (5,588 sq mi).

Its source is in the southwestern part of the Alps, in the Montgenèvre ski resort near Briançon; it flows southwest through the following departments and cities:

  • Hautes-Alpes: Briançon, Embrun.
  • Alpes-de-Haute-Provence: Sisteron, Manosque.
  • Vaucluse: Cavaillon, Avignon.
  • Bouches-du-Rhône.

The Durance's largest tributary is the Verdon. The Durance itself is a tributary of the Rhône and flows into the Rhône near Avignon. The Durance is the second longest (after the Saône) of the tributaries of the Rhône and the third largest in terms of its flow (after the Saône and Isère).

1. And – another inescapable coupling – when did you last hear the word durance, followed by any word other than "vile"? I had always supposed that durance vile was a concept out of Bunyan, but my dictionary of quotations says it emerged in a work called Falstaff‘s Wedding by William Kendrick, who was born at a date that cannot be established and died in 1777.
2. Robert Burns has the lines÷ "In durance vile here must I wake and weep/ And all my frowsy couch in sorrow steep"; but as he was only 18 when Kendrick died, I guess Kendrick got there first.
3. It‘s hard not to miss Margot Kidder and even Erica Durance of «Smallville.» There‘re rumors that Brandon Routh was director Bryan Singer‘s toy boy, and hence got the role.
