Description

• Written before the winter of 1541 by Marguerite, Queen of Navarre and sister to Francis 1st of France. La Coche is a late example of the mediaeval 'débat d'amour', a genre in which two or more arguments are presented for judgement before an arbitor: in Chaucer's 'Parlement of Foules' the tercets submit their claims to the formal eagle to Nature; in 'La Coche', three ladies ask Marguerite to decide which of them is most unfortunate in love. French analogues are numerous, though all earlier: Marguerite names Alain Chartier (line 51) whose 'Livre des Quatre Dames' has several similarities; Christine de Pisan's 'Dit de Poissy' and 'Dit des trois jugements' are also analagous. MS. Douce 91 and MS. 522 in the Musée Condé, Chantilly, which are almost indentical, were executed in Paris and given to her friends by the Duchesse d'Etampes, the favourite of Francis 1st.
