| Samenvatting: | King Marsile’s Chamber in Saragossa. A Study of a particular Evocation of Islamic Art (The Song of Roland, Stanza CLXXXVIII)The Saracen king’s chamber is evoked in a few (difficult-to-translate) words. The Voltice, or dome, suggests the transition from earth to heaven and evokes the idea of the cosmos. Its decoration, mentioned very allusively, consists of chromatic saturation and ornamental writing. Whether exoticism or element of local color, such a feature could well have an ulterior motive, since in this case the enchanting writing is devoid of meaning. |
