| Summary | "Le chevalier délibéré" by Olivier de La Marche is a narrative poem written in the late 15th century. The text follows a knight's introspective journey as he reflects on his past and the nature of mortality, set against the backdrop of chivalric ideals and battles. The central themes revolve around honor, the passage of time, and the inevitability of death, as exemplified by the knight's encounters with figures representing these concepts, such as Accidant and Debile. The beginning of the poem introduces the protagonist as he embarks on a solitary quest, filled with thoughts of his youth and the losses that come with age. He reflects on the transient nature of life and the power of fate, ultimately leading him to confront two formidable knights, Accidant and Debile. As he engages in combat, the knight grapples with both physical and existential challenges, showcasing a blend of valor and vulnerability in the face of grim realities. The tone blends melancholy with a quest for overcoming fate, setting the stage for the deeper philosophical explorations that unfold throughout the narrative.
