This study examines Wagner’s adaptation of his source, the Tristan of Gottfried von Strassburg, to construct a character that represents the courtly chivalric society of the opera in opposition to the new order represented in Tristan’s passionate pursuit of love and, ultimately, of death. Building on literary scholarship of the Tristan tradition, this study explores issues of duality and decline in Mark’s character and the elements of his chivalric friendship with Tristan within the homosocial constructs of the courts. Through his use of traditional operatic lament form, associative orchestration, and text expression, Wagner constructs a king who is more nuanced that any of his predecessors: one cleansed by tragedy and capable of forgiveness.

  • The Evolving Iconography of the Tristan Legend from the Middle Ages to the Present, with Special Emphasis on the Arthurian Reviv
    66 arthuriana the 2018 loomises lecture The Evolving Iconography of the Tristan Legend from the Middle Ages to the Present, with Special Emphasis on the Arthurian Revival in British Art joan tasker grimbert In this essay, I explore how the iconography of the legend of Tristan and Iseult evolved through the ages, noting how each epoch favored a specific episode that seemed to emblemize the lovers’ plight. Although I consider various cultural influences, I emphasize the particular works (mostly literary) from which artists, musicians, and filmmakers appear to have drawn their primary inspiration. (JTG) he legend of Tristan and Iseult has had a long and remarkable history.1 TOriginating apparently as an oral tale to which the troubadours allude as early as the eleventh century, it is preserved in fragments of narrative poems in Anglo-Norman, Middle High German, Middle English, and Old Norse dating back to the late twelfth and early thirteenth centuries. It was transformed decisively in the thirteenth century when it merged with the legend of King Arthur in the French prose Tristan, a work which then spawned variations in Italian and Spanish. The prose Tristan was later preserved in abbreviated form in late fifteenth-century printed editions and—quite differently—in the vast middle section of Sir Thomas Malory’s Morte Darthur. After experiencing a lull in the early modern period, the legend was again revived in the nineteenth century with the appearance of new editions of Malory’s work and inaugural editions of the medieval verse romances, which inspired contemporary poets and artists. In the later decades of that century, Richard Wagner’s opera, Tristan und Isolde, left its powerful imprint on poets, artists, and eventually filmmakers, and, in the early twentieth century, Joseph Bédier’sRoman de Tristan et Iseut likewise influenced primarily book illustrators and filmmakers.

A thesis presented in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts in English Literature at Massey University. Tamsyn Rebekah Elise Knight 2001 zwivalaere: a waverer; a doubter; one who is in two minds; a man divided. II Abstract This thesis examines the shifting portrayals of the character of King Mark in six medieval Tristan texts. Over a period of three centuries the depiction of Mark slowly deteriorates from the noble king presented by the early poems to the treacherous and malevolent villain found in Malory's works. Betrayed by both his nephew and his wife, Mark's character has tragic possibilities which can detract from the sympathetic portrayal of the central lovers. In their illicit passion, Tristan and Iseult violate feudal, familial , and emotional bonds with Mark; if the lovers are to retain their honour, Mark must seem worthy of betraya l. Tristan's disloyalty is lessened when his uncle becomes a murderous violator of kinship bonds; Iseult's infidelity becomes understandable when her husband becomes vicious and lu stful ; and the lovers' subversion of Mark' s authority becomes acceptable when his kingship is shown to be corrupt. As uncle, husband and king, Mark is portrayed as trapped by his circumstances; while the lovers accept their doom passively, Mark is an individual waging a futile war against fate .

  • Music in Medieval English Romance
    1 MUSIC IN MEDIEVAL ENGLISH ROMANCE: MUSICAL THEORY AND MUSICAL PRACTICE, c. 1200–1400 by Emilia P. Klimova A thesis submitted for the Degree of PhD in English Literature Word Count: 99,093 University College London English Language and Literature 2018; rev 2020 2 I, Emilia P. Klimova, confirm that the work presented in this thesis is my own. Where information has been derived from other sources, I confirm that this has been indicated in the thesis. Signed: 3 Abstract This thesis examines the depiction of music as an affective force in three kinds of narrative from the corpus of insular romance – kingship quest romances, romances engaging with magic, and Tristan romances – which represent a thematic cross-section of ‘music romances’, as I am dubbing them. The attitudes to the representation of music and musicians in these samples of music romances is, even within a single set of case studies, fluid and variable, but I will show how these romances draw from a shared pool of musical tropes which create a commonality between seemingly disparate texts. I argue that the differences in the portrayal of music’s affective, transformational capabilities in the case studies are primarily a function of the thematic concerns of these texts and their respective genres and modal possibilities. In each case study, one of the romances depicts music’s affective force in its ideal form, where the other challenges the ideal by inverting or undermining the tropes, devoting more attention to the limitations and shortcomings of music’s capabilities. I will look at the various kinds of narratives that these tropes enable: the same set of tropes binding these narratives together allows for considerable range in the representation of concerns about and attitudes to the powers of music.

  • LOVE CURES Ethical Theory, the Livre De Paix Was Revolutionary in Its Timing, Viewpoint, and Content
    Doggett PB cover 10/10/08 9:43 AM Page 1 PENN STATE ROMANCE STUDIES Christine de Pizan, one of the earliest known women authors, wrote the Livre de paix (Book of Peace) between 1412 and 1414, a period of severe corruption and civil unrest in her native France. The book offered Pizan a platform from which to expound her views on contemporary politics and to put forth a strict moral code to which she believed all governments should aspire. The text’s intended recipient was the dauphin, Louis of Guyenne; Christine felt that Louis had the political and social influence to fill a void left by years of incom- petent leadership. Drawing in equal parts from the Bible and from classical LOVE CURES ethical theory, the Livre de paix was revolutionary in its timing, viewpoint, and content. This volume, edited by Karen Green, Constant Mews, and Janice Pinder, boasts the first full English translation of Pizan’s work along with the original French text. The editors also place the Livre de paix in historical context, Healing and Love Magic in provide a brief biography of Pizan, and offer insight into the translation process.

  • La Perception De La Nature Dans Le Roman De Tristan Et Iseut Étude Écocritique Comparative Entre La Composition De Joseph Bédier Et Ses Sources Médiévales
    La perception de la Nature dans Le Roman de Tristan et Iseut Étude écocritique comparative entre la composition de Joseph Bédier et ses sources médiévales Li Hedenmalm Examensarbete, 15 hp Franska D1, HT 2018 Handledare: Universitetslektor i franska Sylviane Robardey-Eppstein Institutionen för moderna språk, Uppsala universitet 1 Résumé Ce mémoire est une analyse comparative écocritique entre Le Roman de Tristan et Iseut, composé par Joseph Bédier en 1900, et ses sources médiévales principales : les poèmes du XIIIe siècle de Béroul, de Thomas d’Angleterre, d’Eilhart d’Oberg et de Gottfried de Strasbourg. L’objectif principal de notre étude est de chercher à savoir si la perception de la Nature dans le roman de Bédier diffère de celle des textes médiévaux. Pour at- teindre ce but, nous dirigeons notre attention sur les descriptions des paysages sauvages et sur les épisodes où les forces de la Nature semblent influencer le déroulement des évènements du récit. Nous analysons ces passages, et nous les comparons avec les des- criptions correspondantes tirées des sources de Bédier. Nos résultats montrent que, même si la représentation de la Nature est chez Bédier loin d’être unilatérale, elle té- moigne généralement d’une vue plus positive de la nature sauvage par rapport aux textes médiévaux. De ce fait, le roman de Bédier s’éloigne de la tradition médiévale, qui consiste à voir les environnements sauvages comme étant inhospitaliers et périlleux, et s’approche plutôt de la tradition romantique qui célèbre les merveilles de la Nature. Mots clés Béroul, description paysage, écocritique, Eilhart d’Oberg, étude des sources, Gottfried de Strasbourg, intertexte, Joseph Bédier, nature sauvage, réécriture, romans de chevale- rie, Thomas d’Angleterre, Tristan et Iseut Abstract This essay is a comparative ecocritical analysis of The Romance of Tristan and Iseult, composed by Joseph Bédier in 1900, and its principal medieval sources: the thirteenth- century poems of Béroul, Thomas of Britain, Eilhart von Oberge and Gottfried von Strassburg.

  • Tale Isolde As Time
    Háskóli Íslands Hugvísindasvið Viking and Medieval Norse Studies Tale Isolde as Time: A Comparative Analysis of a Key Female Figure Across the Middle High German and Old Norse Tristan Epic Ritgerð til M.A.-prófs Lynn Schönbeck Kt.: 1808944629 Leiðbeinandi: Sif Ríkharðsdóttir June 2019 Abstract This thesis deals with the characterization of a single figure from the Tristan Legend. Isolde has long been the focus of scholars due to the fascinating and adulterous nature of her relationship with Tristan. The focus of this thesis, however, is not adultery, or even the concept of love. Rather, it will examine other characteristics applied to Isolde in both the Middle High German and Old Norse literary corpuses. For the purpose of concise and consistent analysis, four typologies of character have been created. They are: the Healer, the Knight, the Rebuker, and the Clever. By applying these four typologies to each literary work independently and then comparatively, both within each works own corpus and cross-culturally, I aim to identify areas of overlap and dissonance. Then, having determined these areas of interest, this thesis proceeds to discuss the potential cultural, social, and political circumstances that informed those characterizations. ii Ágrip Í ritgerðinni er fjallað um hvernig einni persónu úr Tristrams sögninni er lýst.

  • Tristan and Isolde
    Tristan and Isolde Tristan and Isolde is an romance story, come from the vast Prose Tristan (c. retold with many variations since the 1240), which was markedly different 12th century. The story is a tragedy about from the earlier tales written by Thomas the adulterous love between the Cornish and Béroul. knight Tristan and the Irish princess Isolde. The narrative most likely influenced the Arthurian romance og Lancelot and Guinevere, and has had a substantial impact on Western art and literature. While the details of the story differ from one author to another, the overall plot structure remains much the same. Narratives of the legend Tristan & Isolde by John Duncan After defeating the Irish knight Morholt, Tristan travels to Ireland to bring back the fair Isolde for his uncle, King Mark of Cornwall, to marry. Along the way, they ingest a love potion which causes the pair to fall madly in love. In the courtly version, the potion's effects last a lifetime, but, in the common versions, the potion's effects wane after three years. In some versions, they ingest the potion accidentally; in others, the potion's maker instructs Isolde to share it with Mark, but she deliberately gives it to Tristan instead. Although Isolde marries Mark, she and Tristan are forced Tristan and Isolde by Hughes Merle by the potion to seek one another, as lovers. While the typical noble The story and charter of Tristan vary Arthurian character would be shamed by from author to author; even the spelling such an act, the love potion that controls of his name varies a great deal, although them frees Tristan and Isolde from "Tristan" is the most popular spelling.
