| description | This article examines an early-thirteenth-century short verse narrative that calls itself a
lay but contains features that strongly remind us of fabliaux, mainly the use of uncouth
elements and/or the ridiculing of some characters, despite its courtly setting. A close
linguistic and narratological analysis of the text will explore how the narrator’s framing
and reporting of his characters’ gendered discourses can both help and hinder the
listener-readers to adjust their horizons d’attente with regard to this rather atypical
narrative, thereby interweaving the notions of gender and genre. |
