Jealousy in French and Catalan Medieval Romance
Frešerová, Eliška ; Voldřichová - Beránková, Eva (advisor) ; Šuman, Záviš (referee)
This paper is dedicated to one of the vices, jealousy, and its study in three medieval romances in which jealousy is one of the main themes. The romances are Tirant lo Blanc, Flamenca and The Romance of the Rose. These texts offer, in addition, a possibility to compare the approach to jealousy in different areas, which are contemporary Catalonia, northern and southern France (Occitania), and in various literary traditions - in a Catalan chivalry romance Tirant lo Blanc, being late from the French point of view (end of the 15th century) and so being very different too, then in a typical courtesy romance Flamenca, where jealousy has an important role thanks to the topos castia gilos (a punishment of a jealous man) and finally The Romance of the Rose containing many courtesy elements but being original at the same time. Key words: medieval romance, jealousy, Occitan, Catalan, French, vices, courtesy, chivalry romance
