To do so, the discussion focuses on the key concepts of the prose romance, the duty of love and fidelity in love, which become extraordinarily important, beginning with an episode that was invented and inserted by the prose writer towards the third part of the romance. The episode describes the sorrow of a damsel abandoned by her lover and acts as a magical mirror, which will be decisive for the hero’s good conduct for the remainder of the story. The present study sets the important concepts in the context of the rules of courtly love, said to have been created by Charles VI, and concludes that the prose version of Cligès may well have played a considerable ideological role similar to the court’s, which blossomed significantly with the accession of Philippe the Good, and which must have helped the Duke to domesticate his courtiers.Cairn free access
