Le roman de la rose - Tome IV

by de Lorris Guillaume & Jean de Meun

  • First published: Date unknown
  • Language: French

"Le roman de la rose - Tome IV" by Guillaume de Lorris and Jean de Meun is a medieval French allegorical poem written in two parts between 1230-1269. This dream vision follows a lover's quest to reach a rose symbolizing his beloved within an enclosed garden. The first part presents courtly romance; the second transforms into philosophical discourse, satirizing religious hypocrisy and overturning ideals of courtly love through cynical observations about human nature, desire, and society.
