Xerox University Microfilms 300 North Zeeb Road Ann Arbor, Michigan 48106 74-10,911 INFORMATION TO USE "3 This material was produced from a microfilm copy of the original document. While the most advanced technological means to photograph and reproduce this document have been used, the quality is heavily dependent upon the quality of the original submitted. The following explanation of techniques is provided to help you understand markings or patterns which may appear on this reproduction. 1. The sign or “target" for pages apparently lacking from the document photographed is “ Missing Page(s)". If it was possible to obtain the missing page(s) or section, they are spliced into the film along with adjacent pages. This may have necessitated cutting thru an image and duplicating adjacent pages to insure you complete continuity. 2. When an image on the film is obliterated with a large round black mark, it is an indication that the photographer suspected that the copy may have moved during exposure and thus cause a blurred image. You will find a good image of the page in the adjacent frame. 3. When a map, drawing or chart, etc., was part of the material being photographed the photographer followed a definite method in "sectioning" the material. It is customary to begin photoing at the upper left hand corner of a large sheet and to continue photoing from left to right in equal sections with a small overlap. If necessary, sectioning is continued again — beginning below the first row and continuing on until complete. 4. The majority of users indicate that the textual content is of greatest value, however, a somewhat higher quality reproduction could be made from “photographs" if essential to the understanding of the dissertation. Silver prints of "photographs" may be ordered at additional charge by writing the Order Department, giving the catalog number, title, author and specific pages you wish reproduced. 5. PLEASE NOTE: Some pages may have indistinct print. Filmed as received.

Conflict—internal and external, political as well as religious- dominated the history of France in the fourteenth and fifteenth centuries. French and Burgundians struggled for power; England and France were en­ gaged in the Hundred Years' War; the establishment of the Avignon papacy s p li t th e Church in to two fa c tio n s . Such an atmosphere was not conducive to the development of a rich cultural life; France, which had enjoyed the high degree of civilization characteristic of the twelfth-century Renais­ sance and the thirteenth-century Gothic, was no longer a leader in the a r t s . The French, involved in the aforementioned struggles, no longer ap­ preciated the literary genres which had been so popular at an earlier date. They found it difficult to relate to a Roland and his battles with the Saracens or to an Arthurian hero and his fantastic loves and adven­ tures; they were too deeply engaged in the events of their everyday lives, events which would determine the future of their homeland. Other genres were called upon to take the place of the chanson de geste and the roman courtois. The chix>nicle became an important means of expression and the one inqwrtant narrative form because of its historical nature (Froissart, Coranynes); the theatre was the most populai^ non-narrative form (miracle and mystery plays, farces); ornamental lyric poetry was cultivated (Mr^- chaut, Deschançs, Christine de Pisan, Alain Chai*tier). Prom the above 1 2 enumeration, the lack of interest in the fictional narrative is appa­ re n t . The state of the French language during the Middle French period, furthermore, was not equal to the production of masterpieces to be com­ pared with those of the twelfth centuryt for example. literature, ex­ plains Pierre Quiraud, ^ is the product of both culture and language; when these two factors are not at the same level of development, the re­ sult is "oeuvres médiocres," but "lorsqu'en revanche, la maturité d'une langue coincide avec 1' épanouissement d'une culture, alors s'ouvre un grand siècle littéraire." The French language in the fourteenth and fif­ teenth centuries was in a state of transition. A new language—modem French—was bom about the middle of the fourteenth century with its dis­ tinct phonetic, grammatical and lexical characteristics. There was, however, a part of the French-speaking world which, seemingly, contradicted these general tendencies—the state of burgundy. ^ The dukes of Burgundy, more prosperous than the kings of France, and ri­ valing them in power and territory, were able to maintain a very rich court life where the arts were held in high esteem, while at the same time involving themselves deeply in the conflicts of their times. Jean i^chner ^ reports that "A l'époque où Charles VII trouve avec peine une Le Moyen Français. "Que sais-je?", Wo. 1086 (Paris: Presses Universitaires de France, 1966), p. 121. In this study, we shall use the term Burgundy to refer to the state of Burgundy and Bourgogne to refer to the province.

  • A Black Monk in the Rose Garden Lydgate and the Dit Amoureux Tradition Susan Bianco Dphil the University of York the Department
    A BLACK MONK IN THE ROSE GARDEN LYDGATE AND THE DIT AMOUREUX TRADITION SUSAN BIANCO DPHIL THE UNIVERSITY OF YORK THE DEPARTMENT OF ENGLISH AND RELATED LITERATURE SEPTEMBER, 1999 ABSTRACT This thesis explores connections between the courtly poetry of John Lydgate, monk of Bury, and works which belong to the French tradition of the dit amoureux. A theoretical framework has been adopted for this study which insists upon the need to historicise Lydgate's dits; these were occasional poems. Linked to this historicisation is an acknowledgement of the important relationships in late-medieval literature between ideology and genre and between ethics and politics. A study of the genre of the dits amoureux in the fourteenth century reveals poems which are didactic and courtly; they also frequently refer to specific historic referents. No courtly commission has hitherto been sought for Lydgate's dits amoureux. The suggestion that Henry Bolingbroke, the future Henry IV, features in both the Complaynt of the Black Knight and the Temple of Glas positions these poems amongst Lydgate's earliest extant works. The Complaynt may refer to Bolingbroke's exile in France; the Temple may have been written to celebrate his marriage to Joan of Navarre. I conclude that the Complaynt exploits the tradition of the French dit amoureux to use the allegory of an unhappy courtly lover to express political and androcentric concerns. I propose a multiplicity of readings for the Temple. It depicts a 'marriage' in Venus' temple of love, produces an implicit critique of courtly language and courtly love and teaches the importance of gaining popular support through eloquent speech in the public forum.

    Friday, 28.07.2017 09:00-10:30 Artusrezeption in Spätmittelalter und Früher Neuzeit Head: Mathias Herweg Room 2 Unsere Sektion zum Rahmenthema "Nachmittelalterlicher Artus: Druck und andere Medien" befasst sich mit dem Weiterleben des Artusstoffs und der Artusfiguren im Spätmittelalter und der Frühen Neuzeit. Das Spektrum reicht vom 13. bis zum 16. Jahrhundert (mit einem Schwerpunkt im 15./16. Jh.) und deckt die deutsche, französische, italienische und niederländische Literatur ab. Beleuchtet wird einerseits, wie Figuren der matière de Bretagne in verschiedenen Gattungen rezipiert werden (in längeren und kürzeren Erzähltexten, in verschiedenen lyrischen Gattungen und auf der Bühne), andererseits, welche Rolle dabei verschiedene Medienwechsel (Buchdruck, Text/Bild, Bühne) spielen. DIE FRÜHEN DRUCKE DER FRANZÖSISCHEN ARTUSROMANE Brigitte Burrichter Im ausgehenden 15. und frühen 16. Jahrhundert wurden mehrere französische Artusromane des 13. Jahrhunderts gedruckt. Gegenstand des Vortrags wird der Umgang der Drucker mit den mittelalterlichen Romanen sein (Modernisierung der Sprache, Vorworte). RÜCKBLICK AUF DES KÖNIG ARTUS ZEIT. ARTUS-ERWÄHNUNGEN IM HÖFISCH-GALANTEN ROMAN DES 15./16. JAHRHUNDERTS Cora Dietl In der höfisch-galanten Erzählliteratur des späteren 15. und 16. Jahrhunderts lässt sich zunehmend eine historische Distanz zur arthurischen Welt erkennen. Wenn ritterliche Romane dieser Zeit in England oder Frankreich spielen, dann ist es meist das nacharthurische Britannien, in dem sich zwar Konstellationen aus der Artusliteratur wiederholen, aber keine Artusritter mehr auftreten. Sie werden trotzdem als Exempel genannt – und das häufig zu Beginn der Handlung, um beim Rezipienten das entsprechende literarische Muster aufzurufen und die Rezipientenerwartung entsprechend zu lenken. Diesem Phänomen werde ich an verschiedenen Beispieltexten nachgehen (u.a. Pontus und Sidonia, Ritter Galmy, Amadis), um nach der Funktion des Arthurischen im nichtarthurischen höfisch-galanten Roman um 1500 generell zu fragen.

  • Compléter La Table Ronde. Le Lignage De Guiron Vu Par Les Armoriaux Arthuriens
    Compléter la Table Ronde. Le lignage de Guiron vu par les armoriaux arthuriens Un armorial est, pris à la lettre, un « livre des armes », c’est-à-dire que l’on y consigne les armoiries des chevaliers d’une famille, d’une région, d’un pays ou tout simplement de ceux qui ont été présents à un événement particulier. À l’opposé d’un tel armorial « occasionnel », comme on dit, se situent l’armorial « général », qui recense les armoiries de toute la noblesse occidentale, et l’armorial « universel » qui comporte en outre des personnages préhéraldiques, comme Charlemagne, les héros bibliques ou le prêtre Jean1. Les armoriaux arthuriens, dont il sera ici question, sont de la même veine dans la mesure où il y est question de personnages non historiques2 : il s’agit en effet de répertoires qui donnent la liste de l’ensemble des chevaliers de la Table Ronde, avec leur nom et leur écu, le plus souvent dessiné, parfois aussi blasonné, occasionnellement accompagné de renseignements concernant les supports, le cimier et la devise du chevalier3. À côté de cette première forme de l’armorial arthurien, il en existe une seconde, qui ajoute, à ces informations héraldiques, une petite description de chaque personnage, voire son portrait. Dans les manuscrits qui comportent des descriptions, le tout est précédé d’une rubrique liminaire destinée à conférer aux différentes notices une sorte d’unité de temps et de lieu : Ce sont les noms, armes et blasons des chevaliers compaignons de la Table Ronde au temps que ilz jurerent la queste du Sainct Graal a Camaloth le jour de la 1 M.

  • Roman De Guiron’
    La tradition textuelle de la Continuation du ‘Roman de Guiron’ Le cycle romanesque de Guiron le Courtois est une vaste galaxie textuelle formée de différents contes et narrations. En partant de cet ensemble textuel, la récente enquête de Nicola Morato a réussi à démontrer l’existence de trois noyaux fonda- mentaux (Roman de Meliadus, Roman de Guiron, Suite Guiron) à partir desquels se sont ensuite construites les narrations successives1. Cette démarche a ainsi permis de mettre enfi n de l’ordre dans un ensemble textuel très riche et diffi cile à percevoir de façon organique. À l’intérieur de ce vaste ensemble, l’objet de notre étude est la Continuation du ‘Roman de Guiron’, une narration postérieure aux trois noyaux principaux, qui cher- che à donner une réponse au « blocage narratif » imposé par la fi n du Roman de Gui- ron. Dans cette brève étude, nous voulons exposer comment ce texte a été traité par la critique, dresser une liste des problèmes relatifs à une curieuse tradition textuelle, enfi n fournir quelques éléments pour l’étude des rapports de dépendance entre les deux manuscrits complets2. À la fi n du Roman de Guiron, deuxième branche du cycle (Lath. 132)3, les ch e- valiers qui, jusqu’alors, avaient joué le rôle de protagonistes, ne sont plus capables d’entreprendre actions ou aventures. Plusieurs d’entre eux sont emprisonnés (Guiron le Courtois, le Bon Chevalier sans Peur, Ariohan de Sassoigne, Lac, Danain le Roux, le Morholt d’Irlande) ; d’autres rentrent dans leur pays d’origine (Meliadus en Leo- nois, Pharamond en Gaule).

  • Modern Arthuriads
    Monday, 24.07.2017 09:00-10:30 Modern Arthuriads Head: Kevin J. Harty, Donald L. Hoffman Room 2 The legends of King Arthur remain alive and well today in multiple genres and forms. This roundtable examine the ways in which the Arthuriad has continued to become the focus of writers for film and television. ‘DAVID BECKHAM IS A USEFUL IDIOT’: GUY RITCHIE, KING ARTHUR AND ‘THE GREAT CONSPIRACY’ Andrew B.R. Elliott Guy Ritchie’s recent reworking of the Arthurian legend, King Arthur: Legend of the Sword was released to a barrage of both professional and amateur criticism. The usual complaints abounded, from laments over misused sources or confused plots, to casting choices or directorial decisions. However, in one small corner of the internet, self-styled political analyst, part-time historian and apparently award-winning filmmaker, Matt Taylor was calling for a boycott of Ritchie’s film for very different reasons. According to Taylor, Ritchie (alongside Hunnam and Beckham) were no less than traitors to the nation and a tool of the New World Order. Taylor’s reasoning is less than clear. However, the main thrust of his argument is summarized in a meme prominently featured on his blog, which justifies the boycott on the grounds that the films are “not based on the real King Arthur’s [sic] they are based on French romantic crap [sic]”. On the strength of his use of French sources, Taylor continues, Ritchie and Beckham are not only traitors but agents in a giant cover up which, apparently, includes the Royal Family (as a “foreign German royal dynasty”).

Heirs of the Round Table: French Arthurian Fiction from 1977 to the Present Abstract While the English-speaking tradition has dominated the production of Arthurian-themed materials since the nineteenth-century Arthurian Revival, there is evidence that the publication of modern Arthurian fiction in French has enjoyed a major upswing over the past few decades. Notable contributions include Michel Rio's Merlin-Morgane-Arthur trilogy, Jacques Roubaud and Florence Delay's ten-volume cycle Graal théâtre, a half-dozen fantasy novels about the origins of the Arthurian world by Jean-Louis Fetjaine, and medievalist Michel Zink's young adult novel Déodat, ou la transparence. Such texts are deeply anchored in the medieval tradition, invested in co-opting the flavor of medieval source texts at the level of narration as well as plot. Textual genealogies are frequently thematized in modern French Arthuriana by authors who credit a medieval parentage, whether through a narratorial intervention or paratexual references.

  • LES ARMOIRIES DES CHEVALIERS DE LA TABLE RONDE (2E Version)
    SIBILEAU FREDDY LES ARMOIRIES DES CHEVALIERS DE LA TABLE RONDE (2e version) Avril 2009 PRESENTATION Le présent travail est motivé par les remarquables synthèses de Michel Pastoureau consacrées à l'héraldique arthurienne & publiés dans L'Armorial des Chevaliers de la Table Ronde, Le Léopard d'Or, 1983 & Les Chevaliers de la Table Ronde, éditions du Gui, 2006. Ces ouvrages ont pour vocation la présentation des armes des chevaliers de la Table Ronde, décrites dans l'ensemble des « armoriaux de la Table Ronde », réalisés entre les années 1440-1450 & les années 1515-1520, ainsi que l'établissement d'un répertoire biographique de ces mêmes chevaliers, selon les textes littéraires français des XIIe & XIIIe siècles. Notre démarche s'inscrit en premier lieu pour répondre à notre désir d'apporter notre modeste contribution à cette difficile & longue recherche. En effet, l'auteur lui-même de ces recueils avoue la difficulté de cette tâche & précise à propos des chevaliers de la Table Ronde : « Il se peut que quelques uns m'aient échappé – un tel dictionnaire ne peut être qu'incomplet & provisoire – mais je doute qu'ils soient nombreux »1. De même, l'homonymie et les variantes orthographiques des noms des personnages des textes de la légende arthurienne conduisent invariablement à des interprétations & à des choix. Notre intérêt ancien pour cette « matière de Bretagne » nous a également amené à étudier ce matériau, & nous pensons utile de partager le fruit de notre propre recherche en livrant ici nos propres réflexions & interprétations dans l'espoir de compléter ce travail stimulant. Dans un deuxième temps, l'essentiel de celui-ci repose sur les armoriaux de la fin du Moyen Age, qui se veulent comme un « instantané » de la Table Ronde présentant « les noms, armes & blasons des chevaliers compaignons de la Table Ronde au temps que ilz jurerent la queste du Sainct Graal a Camaaloth le jour de la Pentecouste ».
