	Guillaume de Lorris' Romance of the Rose and medieval garden design
		Even earlier than Guillaume de Lorris the scene of several Latin and French love tales was laid in a garden, but it was his Romaunt of the Rose that fixed and incorporated the traditional descriptions, in which successors scarcely ever made any alteration even in details.
		Guillaume de Lorris says one of the crystals is a magic mirror, so that you can see half the garden in it, and if you look up, there is the same picture to be seen again.
		But Guillaume de Lorris, in spite of his touches of magic, is thoroughly realistic in other respects; and although the wall too is painted in the colours of allegory, it is still a real garden wall with a little entrance gate.

		The rubric of the poem, where his own part finishes, attributes Jean de Meun's continuation to a period forty years later than William's death and the consequent interruption of the romance.
		Arguing backwards, this death used to be put at about 1260; but Jean de Meun's own work has recently been dated earlier, and so the composition of the first part has been thrown back to a period before 1240.
		There are of course traces of it before, as in some romances, such as those of Raoul de Houdenc, in the troubadours, and in other writers; but it was unquestionably Guillaume de Lorris who fixed the style.

	Guillaume de Lorris Summary
		Since Guillaume refers to a dream in his twentieth year 5 or 6 years earlier, the date of his birth can be assumed to be about 1210.
		Guillaume's themes were not new; Ovid, Chrestien de Troyes, the troubadours, and Andreas Capellanus furnished him with much, but the freshness of Guillaume's imagination and the delicacy and elegance of his treatment made the work persistently successful, to which the preservation of some 300 manuscripts attests.

	Prohibitions
		Guillaume, with his portrayal of a narcissistic and very phallic rose, his introduction of the masculine Fair Welcoming who is imprisoned and inaccessible to the Lover amid rumors of an evil relationship, is emblematically describing a homosexual love, for which the Lover takes no responsibility, since he has been wounded by the God of Love.
		Jean de Meun rewrites Guillaume's romance, focusing attention on the kiss between the Lover and the Rose, rather than the "evil relationship" between the Lover and Fair Welcoming, and informing the reader that Guillaume's work was unfinished and the romance unconsummated.
		In Jean de Meun's version, Foul Mouth claims that he had heard the truth and is willing to trumpet it some more, saying that "that fellow kissed the rose," [28] while the Old Woman says that she has forgotten the slander little by little.

	Romanic Review: An allegorical mirror: The pool of Narcissus in Guillaume de Lorris' Romance of the Rose
		Hunain's description of the eye's structure provides an important detail for our understanding of Guillaume's fountain, for it indicates that the crystals beneath the water, with their ability to receive color from the sun's rays, are most likely a physical allegory of the crystalline humor situated within the watery substance of the eye.
		Guillaume's description of the reflective ability of the crystals must be seen in regard to this distinction.
		According to Agamben, the pool is an "allegorie de la psychophysiologie decrite par Averroes,"9 a psycho-physiology of vision that he traces back primarily to Aristotle (his De anima in particular) with significant contributions from stoicism and neo-platonism.

		The text is attributed to two authors, its first 4,058 lines being the work of Guillaume de Lorris, and the remaining 18,000 lines composed by Jean de Meun, an early 14th century Parisian writer and intellectual.
		However, Jean's digressions in fact brought fame and success to the poem: often outspoken and apparently fearless in attacking the abuses of his age, the contentious opinions expressed here were hotly contested by contemporaries and captured the imagination of the increasingly important bourgeois class.
		Christine de Pizan was so provoked by the subject matter of the poem that she famously initiated the 'Querelle de la Rose' in the fifteenth century; she attacked the poem for defaming women, for justifying seduction and rape, and for bawdy language.

	Pygmalion - Le Roman de la Rose
		An embellishment of the story is that the sculptor attempts to animate the statue, with which he has fallen in love, by playing various musical instruments.
		Especially since Pygmalion may be regarded as having made the instruments that he plays, the Roman's version of the story is enriched by the traditional conceit (often cast as a riddle) that dead wood comes to life when made into a musical instrument.
		Begun by Guillaume de Lorris around 1230 and continued by Jean de Meun approximately forty years later, the Rose is probably the most influential work written in the Old French vernacular.

	The Romance of the Rose Cosmology
		In Guillaume de Lorris' The Romance of the Rose, much of the text is devoted to expositions of contemporary scientific knowledge.
		Von Eschenbach's text was written roughly between ten and seventy five years before Lorris, and the concept as the grail as chalice had yet to take wide effect, but this juxtaposition of symbols may point to an intermediary point in the symbol's evolution.
		This is in sharp contrast to the fountain of Guillaume de Lorris, which was "Where flowed a spring beneath a spreading pine" (section five, line 113).

		Nothing is known of the author of the first 4,058 lines except his name, Guillaume de Lorris (a village near Orléans).
		No satisfactory conclusion was written until about 1280, when Jean de Meun seized upon the plot of Guillaume de Lorris as a means of conveying a vast mass of encyclopaedic information and opinions on a great variety of contemporary topics.
		It was these digressions that secured the poem its fame and success, for Jean de Meun was writing from a bourgeois point of view that gradually superseded the aristocratic code of Guillaume de Lorris.

		Recalling that Chaucer knew the French poem well (and translated parts of it into English), consider these further selections from the poem both for their intrinsic interest (remember that the Romance of the Rose is the best-seller of the 13th and 14th centuries) and as a context for the Wife of Bath.
		Guillaume claims to have written his poem in order to impress a lady who has either already become his lover or whose "fair welcoming" he still hopes to gain.
		The Wife of Bath's Prologue is an example of the genre known as a literary confession (or "apology"), a first-person narrative in which a character explains his or her character and motivation.

		De Lorris and de Meun's 13th-century allegorical romance was, as Horgan notes in the introduction to her new translation, a bestseller in its day.
		It consists of two parts of unequal length-- the first shorter part by Guillaume de Lorris and the second longer part continued 40 years after de Lorris' death by Jean de Meun.
		The de Lorris section is quite lyrical and fits more with what I imagine an allegorical dream poem to be.
