Abstract

Les ouvrages consacrés à l'épistolaire ne traitent guère du Moyen Age, comme si l'échange entre Héloïse et Abélard pouvait à lui seul rendre compte de dix siècles de correspondance. L'inventaire des lettres médiévales reste à faire. Inscrite à la fois dans l'histoire et la littérature, vraie ou fictive, la lettre a ses propres conventions d'écriture. Les études ici réunies explorent des pièces de chancellerie, des correspondances entre écrivains, la traduction des Héroïdes, les épîtres du Tristan en prose, la lettre servant de cadre et conclusion au recueil de Miracles de Gautier de Coinci, enfin des saluts d'oc, lettres d'amour "en liberté"...

Abstract

In the century before Chaucer a new language of political critique emerged. In political verse of the period, composed in Anglo-Latin, Anglo-Norman, and Middle English, poets write as if addressing the king himself, drawing on their sense of the rights granted by Magna Carta. These apparent appeals to the sovereign increase with the development of parliament in the late thirteenth century and the emergence of the common petition, and become prominent, in an increasingly sophisticated literature, during the political crises of the early fourteenth century. However, very little of this writing was truly directed to the king. As David Matthews shows in this book, the form of address was a rhetorical stance revealing much about the position from which writers were composing, the audiences they wished to reach, and their construction of political and national subjects.
