| Summary: | a courtly fairy? The courtly fairy world in the Livre des visions d’Oger le Dannoys au royaulme de Fairie by François Habert Even though fairies do not naturally mix with humans, at the end of the Middle Ages, the world of fairies and that of the court (and of courtoisie) seem to come together in reciprocal assimilation. From a study of the rewriting of the legend of Ogier the Dane by François Habert in 1542, this article shows that the phenomenon results from two kinds of writing. On the one hand, there is a process of ritualization, which is produced by a spectacular tale integrating the fairy world into a collective ceremonial orchestrated in the real world just as in the fictional one On the other, a degree of rationalization integrates the figures of the fairy world either by turning them into exemplars (as models of courtly relations) or by attributing allegorical value to them (as figures of Fortune). This mix of realistic and magical features then becomes characteristic of a synthesis that materializes, through the image of Morgana, into a fantasy of courtly fairydom. |
