The Epistles on the Romance of the Rose, and other documents in the debate

From its first appearance the Roman de la Rose enjoyed great vogue. We observe in this connection the glowing tributes of contemporary and succeeding writers, the numerous manuscripts, which compensate for the art of printing not then invented, the translations into English, Dutch, Italian, and other languages. Even the numerous paintings and tapestries of scenes from the romance point to its great popularity. Perhaps the remark of M.A. Coville crystallizes the general opinion: Parmi les livres du sicle prcdent, un surtout fut lu de tous, admir des uns, ardemment discut par les autres, cest le Roman de la Rose. La seconde partie avec sa science pdante, ses allgories, ses artifices, devint une nouvelle Bible, et Jean Clopinel de Meun, lauteur, passa pour un vritable prophte. On retrouve son influence surtout chez les potes et les moralistes.[1] Naturally (and this is also an indirect testimony to the influence of the Roman de la Rose) there were those who found matter for serious complaint in the work of Jean de Meung, who in the second part placed the work of Guillaume de Lorris on a basis of profound philosophical import. As we shall see, Gerson, Chancellor of the University of Paris, saw the danger to morals in the average mans reception of a poem which tended to free him from all restraint. Christine de Pisan, too, with a much narrower range of thought, assails with singular energy and with the courage of her convictions a book which contains so many attacks on her sex. ......Buy Now (To Read More)
