| Summary: | [eng] The presence of historical characters among fictional beings is characteristic of several French romans of the 13th century. It is an interesting phenomenon that invites us to analyse how the relationship between fiction and reality is perceived from the point of view of the chivalric aristocracy who are the protagonists of these works. The study of the phenomenon has allowed me to distinguish two contrasting currents. On the one hand, some novelists place the courtly ideal on the plane of symbolic representations, revealing its purely textual nature and transforming it into a game of society; at the other extreme, other authors nostalgically contemplate twelfth-century literature as a mirror of a glorious historical past that encourages mimesis. |
