Oxford, Bern, Berlin, Bruxelles, Frankfurt/M., New York, Wien. This
book offers detailed and provocative readings of a range of
medieval French texts (chansons de geste from the cycle du roi, the
verse Ovide moralise and the trickster narrative, Trubert), aiming
to illustrate how the ideas of Jacques Lacan and Slavoj Zizek can
be applied to works from this period. By means of this approach, it
aims to throw new light on the manner in which different works
define, elaborate and undermine their respective visions of
literary, communal and historical identity. Contents: 'According to
the Flesh': Organic Community and its Discontents in Gaydon and the
Paris Roland - 'Father, Don't You See. . .?': Anseis de Carthage
and the Joy(s) of Kingship - 'Speak of This if You Can': Voice,
Pleasure and Prophylaxis in the Ovide Moralise - 'Cankerous
Imaginings': Trubert and the Metastases of (Perverse) Enjoyment.
