Abstract

Abstract:Since the thirteenth Century, the Old French Roman des sept sages de Rome has given birth to a wide narrative tradition all over Europe. This paper discusses the misogynistic aspects of the Seven Sages' tales collection in the context of its impressive difffusion. Several embedded tales such as Tentamina occur for the fĳirst time in French version and clearly reinforce this tendency. However, scrutiny of the interactions between frame story and embedded tales enable us to a very powerful literary example of the polyphonic use of tale telling, we can mitigate this statement. In spite of its misogynistic tone, the clash of agonistic points of view make it possible to hear the fĳictitious voice of a women's protest against the homogeneity of masculine knowledge and power. Facing this question, we will rely on the widespread French Prose Version A of the Roman des sept sages that is at the root of the fĳirst European expansion of this narrative tradition.

Misogyny与欧洲成功的趋势——法国散文《罗马圣贤集》

摘要：自十三世纪以来，古法罗马的《罗马圣贤》在整个欧洲产生了广泛的叙事传统。本文从《七贤集》令人印象深刻的差异入手，探讨了《七贤》故事集中的厌女现象。一些嵌入的故事，如Tentamina，首次出现在法语版本中，并明显强化了这一趋势。然而，仔细研究框架故事和嵌入故事之间的互动，使我们能够获得一个非常有力的文学例子，说明故事讲述的复调使用，我们可以减轻这种说法。尽管其语气厌恶女性，但痛苦观点的冲突使人们有可能听到女性对男性知识和权力同质化的抗议声音。面对这个问题，我们将依赖于广泛传播的法国散文《罗马圣贤集》A版，它是这一叙事传统在欧洲首次扩张的根源。

期刊介绍： Narrative Culture is a new journal that conceptualizes narration as a broad and pervasive human practice, warranting a holistic perspective that grasps the place of narrative comparatively across time and space. The journal invites contributions that document, discuss and theorize narrative culture, and offers a platform that integrates approaches spread across various disciplines. The field of narrative culture thus outlined is defined by a large variety of forms of popular narratives, including not only oral and written texts, but also narratives in images, three-dimensional art, customs, rituals, drama, dance, music, and so forth. Narrative Culture is peer-reviewed and international as well as interdisciplinary in orientation.
