Paperback. Zustand: New. Print on Demand. This medieval masterpiece is a complex allegorical dream vision composed of two parts. The first part was written around 1230 by Guillaume de Lorris, while the second part which further develops the ideas of the first was written around 1275-1280 by Jean de Meun. The Roman de la Rose is a reflection of 13th century French society and thought. It is a complex and multifaceted work that draws connections between the experiences of the individual and the broader social, political, and intellectual movements of its time, and these linkages resonate with readers even today. The book's influence can be seen in countless works of literature, art, and music throughout history. Themes covered include courtly love, the nature of reality, the role of women in society, the conflict between reason and desire, and the search for knowledge and salvation. The dream allegory is a vehicle for exploring these themes. Through the protagonist's journey, the reader is prompted to consider the nature of love and desire, the relationship between the individual and society, and the role of reason and faith in human life. The book is not simply a collection of abstract ideas, but a vibrant and engaging story that brings these themes to life.
