Le sujet amoureux dans la poésie médiévale : Forme lyrique et organisation textuelle chez Cavalcanti, Dante et Pétrarque ((Re)visionen)

This book studies the relationship between the textual organization of Cavalcanti's, Dante's, and Petrarch's lyric collections and the construction of the lyric subject in this type of love poetry. Between ruptures and competition, the conflict of subjectivities, i.e. between an active, volitional subject and a passive subject, veils a conflict of temporality, between teleology of the narration and lyric circularity.
