Zusammenfassung:The old “chanson de geste” of Lion de Bourges (mid-fourteenth century) was recast at the end of the fifteenth or at the first sixteenth century. Preserved in a unique manuscript (Paris, BnF fr. 351), this version is composed principally in octosyllables, often irregular, but furthermore includes “laisses” of alexandrines, more or less faithful to the earlier version of the poem, and a section of decasyllabic lines. The text is organised into 62 chapters of varied length introduced, the first one excepted, by rubrics in prose. The paper analyses the main stylistic and diegetic characteristics of these rubrics and provides an edition.
