Samenvatting

Descriptions of imaginary buildings abound in late medieval and early modern texts in France. This book examines the reasons for their popularity and analyses the way in which metaphors of the building enabled a writer like Jean Lemaire (c.1473-after 1515) both to praise his patrons and to advertise his own talents, while drawing on and transforming a tradition of writing popularized by his rhétoriqueur predecessors.
