Résumé:Traces of Performance in the Jeu d’Adam The Jeu d’Adam contains many metrically irregular lines which have been explained by the Anglo-Norman origin of its author, yet a closer analysis of this work shows that the original text was metrically regular. It therefore appears that the numerous additions or deletions of lexical units are the result of mouvance. This article demonstrates that these changes were made by actors who modified their lines in order to improve their parts. The Jeu d’Adam is thus remarkable not only as the first known composition of the French repertoire, but also as a document that reveals how actors worked in the 13th century.
