Le roman de la rose - Tome III by de Lorris Guillaume and de Meun Jean

"Le roman de la rose - Tome III" by Guillaume de Lorris and Jean de Meung is a medieval French allegorical poem written in two parts between 1230-1269. The first part follows a lover's quest to reach a rose in an enclosed garden, symbolizing his beloved. The second part transforms this courtly romance into philosophical discourse, featuring cynical characters who mock idealistic notions of love while exploring topics from nature to nobility. This enormously popular work shaped medieval literature for centuries. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
