Abstract

This article explores the treatment of courtly-love in Les Cent ballades d’amant et de dame (1402), Le dit de la pastoure (1403) and Le livre du duc des vrais amants (1404) by Christine de Pisan. The main objective is to analyze the deconstruction carried out by the author through the incorporation of new voices and narrative perspectives that bring a new meaning to concepts such as love or desire. The decisive value of honour in the destiny of women will also be explored.
