De queeste en karakterontwikkeling van de held in de Middelnederlandse Floris ende Blancefloer
Abstract -- Although traditionally considered a chivalric romance, Floris ende Blancefloer is little concerned with chivalric issues; it chiefly narrates the idyllic love story of Floris, a young Spanish prince, and his beloved Blancefloer. This article discusses how the absence of chivalric elements has affected the nature and function of the hero's quest and character development in comparison to more traditional Middle Dutch chivalric romances.
