Florimont, by Aimon de Varennes, a 12th-century Lyonnais author, seems to have been written in 1188, but its dating remains uncertain. The novel tells how a young man, deeply enamored of a fairy, is led to betray, in spite of himself, the one he loves, thus losing his love and how, after many sufferings, the young hero consoles himself with another love and becomes king. Throughout his adventures, Florimont is accompanied by his master, Flocart, who guides and educates him with highly moralistic speeches. We propose to study how the latter character, who, according to Katalin Halász, participates in a higher power or omniscience of the narrator, builds his relationship with his pupil, for the purpose of individual and collective edification. We will first see that Flocart assumes a dual diegetic function that favors the process of individuation of his pupil. We will then show that his multiple interpretations of dreams give him the role of a master of truth who sanctifies the destiny of Florimont. Finally, we will observe that Flocart’s paremiological discourse takes on the appearance of a mirror for princes, able to reveal to his young pupil the principal qualities of a good king, which is achieved by placing generosity at the heart of human and political relations.

Florimont, d’Aimon de Varennes, un trouvère lyonnais du XIIe siècle, semble avoir été écrit en 1188, mais sa datation demeure incertaine. Ce roman narre comment un jeune homme, profondément épris d’une fée, est amené à trahir malgré lui celle qu’il aime, perdant ainsi son amour et comment, après bien des souffrances, le jeune héros se console auprès d’une autre et devient roi. Tout au long des aventures de Florimont, son maître Flocart l’accompagne, le guide et l’éduque par des discours fortement moralisateurs. Nous nous proposons d’étudier comment ce personnage, qui, selon Katalin Halász, participe d’un pouvoir supérieur ou de l’omniscience du narrateur, construit sa relation avec son élève, dans un but d’édification individuelle et collective. Nous verrons tout d’abord que Flocart assume une double fonction diégétique qui favorise le processus d’individuation de son élève. Nous montrerons ensuite que ses multiples interprétations des rêves lui confèrent le rôle de maître de vérité qui sacralise le destin de Florimont. Nous observerons, enfin, que les discours parémiologiques de Flocart prennent des allures de miroir aux princes propre à révéler à son jeune élève les principales qualités d’un bon roi en plaçant la largesse au cœur des relations humaines et politiques.
