| Περίληψη: | The purpose of this paper is to analyze the evolution of the entangled relationships between the three main characters in the second cycle of the adventures of Renard. We focus on Renart le Nouvel and its iteration in prose, Le Livre de Regnart. First, we note the degeneration of the role of Isengrim, which loses all of its traditional status as Renart’s enemy to take on a comic and secondary function in the tales. Then we note that the king, Noble, now Renart’s enemy in its allegoric versions, occupies a place similar to that of Isengrim in the structure of the tales ; that is, he becomes the poor, angry loser that Renart perpetually taunts. These analyses allow us to draw conclusions on the concept of the royal function in the moral code. Finally, we question the reasons that have led authors to modify the primitive story as they have, in particular in connection with the new political realities surrounding the question of the king’s close acquaintances. |
