Le chevalier délibéré by Olivier de La Marche
"Le chevalier délibéré" by Olivier de La Marche is a French allegorical poem written in 1483. A knight named Acteur, in the autumn of his life, embarks on a quest to confront Death's invincible warriors before retreating to a monastery. Along his journey, he encounters allegorical figures and witnesses fateful duels involving the Burgundian rulers Philip the Good, Charles the Bold, and Mary of Burgundy.

of Burgundian culture and the favorite book of Emperor Charles V. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
