Abstract:
Cette thèse étudie les liens entre le thème de la liberté et le motif onirique dans trois œuvres de la littérature de langue anglaise du moyen-âge tardif : Troilus and Criseyde et The nun's priest's tale de Geoffrey Chaucer (XIVe siècle) et The Kingis quair de Jacques Ier d’Écosse (XVe siècle). Après avoir employé les rêves de ses personnages comme des prolepses et comme des symboles de leur emprisonnement et de leur parcours prédestiné, Chaucer remet en question cette tradition littéraire en montrant que rêves et prédestination ne sont pas synonymes tandis que Jacques Ier d’Écosse, en transformant le rêve de son héros emprisonné en illumination, en fait le remède de fortune qui annonce sa libération finale
This thesis examines the links between the theme of freedom and the dream motif in three poems of the late medieval literature in English: Chaucer’s Troilus and Criseyde and Nun's priest's tale (14th century) and James I of Scotland’s Kingis quair (15th century). After using his characters' dreams as prolepses and as symbols of their imprisonment and predestined lives, Chaucer questions this literary tradition by showing that dreams and predestination are not synonymous while James I of Scotland transforms his imprisoned hero's dream into an illumination so that the dream motif heralds his final

Abstract:
This thesis places Chaucer within the tradition of philosophical poetry that begins in Plato and extends through classical and medieval Latin culture. In this Platonic tradition, poetry is a self-reflexive epistemological practice that interrogates the conditions of art in general. As such, poetry as metapoetics takes itself as its own object of inquiry in order to reinforce and generate its own definitions without regard to extrinsic considerations. It attempts to create a poetic-knowledge proper instead of one that is dependant on other modes for meaning. The particular manner in which this is expressed is according to the idea of the loss of the Golden Age. In the Augustinian context of Chaucer’s poetry, language, in its literal and historical signifying functions is an effect of the noetic fall and a deformation of an earlier symbolism. The Chaucerian poems this thesis considers concern themselves with the solution to a historical literary lament for language’s fall, a solution that suggests that the instability in language can be overcome with reference to what has been lost in language. The chapters are organized to reflect the medieval Neoplatonic ascensus. The first chapter concerns the Pardoner’s Old Man and his relationship to the literary history of Tithonus in which the renewing of youth is ironically promoted in order to perpetually delay eternity and make the current world co-eternal to the coming world. In the Miller’s Tale, more aggressive narrative strategies deploy the machinery of atheism in order to make a god-less universe the sufficient grounds for the transformation of a fallen and contingent world into the only world whatsoever. The Manciple’s Tale’s opposite strategy leaves the world intact in its current state and instead makes divine beings human. Phoebus expatriates to earth and attempts to co-mingle it with heaven in order to unify art and history into a single monistic experience. Finally, the Nun’s Priest’s Tale acts as ars poetica for the entire Chaucerian Performance and undercuts the naturalistic strategies of the first three poems by a long experiment in the philosophical conflict between art and history. By imagining art and history as epistemologically antagonistic it attempts to subdue in a definitive manner poetic strategies that would imagine human history as the necessary knowledge-condition for poetic language.
