Perdre les sens Brouillage et théorie de la perception dans Flamenca

Written in the langue d’oc at the end of the thirteenth century, the tale of Flamenca is inscribed in the tradition of troubadours. The work is a privileged place for new reflection on the role of the senses in the formation and crystallisation of love. The quasi-therapeutic description of amorous symptoms and the shifting viewpoints highlight the role of imagination in desire, which mobilises all the senses of the lover but separates him from external perceptions.
