El tema del conflicto masculino-femenino y su resolución en el relato cortés medieval (siglo XII)

Abstract

A lot of courtly tales are based on the everlasting conflict between men and women, triggered by the ideas started in Occitan. Our study analyses two aspects of the aforementioned conflict. First, the consequences of perpetuating the unique (masculine) model; second, the strategies to solve the problem. The senefiance of courtly tales proves the necessity of both public awareness and changing the old social ideas about gender and feudalism. Therefore, the present study tries to bridge the gap between both the individual and society and the collective unconscious and conscious, in order to achieve a happier state of mind.
