Two richly illuminated manuscripts of the Conte del Graal by Chrétien de Troyes
and its continuations (BNF, mss fr. 1453 and 12577) present in text and image the
story of Perceval mingled with those of King Arthur and the Fisher King. Unlike the
other surviving illuminated manuscripts of the texts of Chrétien de Troyes, which
were all executed in Picardy or Flanders, these two manuscripts were both made in
Paris between 1315 and 1325, probably in the royal circle. This article explores two
interrelated hypotheses. First, it suggests that the two Parisian manuscripts model
Perceval on the image of Saint Louis as the ideal Capetian monarch and the most
Christian King. Second, it understands the manuscripts as revealing a crisis in
reading, as examples of the uneasy coexistence of oral and literate cultures, which
itself accounts for the disappearance of the texts of Chrétien de Troyes in the later
Middle Ages. A version of this article appeared in the author’s book, ‘Sealed in
Parchment’: Rereadings of Knighthood in the Illuminated Manuscripts of Chrétien de Troyes
(Chicago, University of Chicago Press, 1994). |
