| Titel: | Le dégoût du cadavre. Une comparaison entre la représentation du corps mort dans le De Miseria Condicionis Humane d’Innocent III et dans son adaptation française Double lay de fragilité humaine d’Eustache Deschamps |
| Autor*in: | Fliege, Daniel |
| Beschreibung: | The study uses the category of disgust in order to analyse the representation of the human body and the corpse in one of the most influential medieval treatises, the De Miseria Condicionis Humanae (1195) written by Pope Innocent III, and its little known old French adaptation Double lay de fragilité humaine (1383) by Eustache Deschamps. Analysing how both use disgust as an aesthetic means, which appeals to emotions and turns off reason, helps to point out the pedagogical and moral function of the texts. The comparison between them shows that Deschamps stays faithful to his Latin model, but that he nevertheless has to make certain modifications in order to adapt the prose text into a lyrical form. Furthermore, this approach clearly elucidates what differences there are between the conceptions of the human body and death in the two texts, revealing at the same time divergent theological points of view. |
