Béroul’s Roman de Tristan revolves round Iseut as sole important female character. Her mythical origins show her as a magician and stranger to the values of Marc’s Kingdom. She permanently insists that she had no hand in the crime that she is charged with. The narrator endlessly comes to her reseue. The lover’s passion develops into courtly love, but she never repents. Iseut is always presented within a pathetic framework that sets her to advantage. The narrator does lay stress on her outstanding beauty, but the latter comes second to her intelligence and linguistic proficiency. Accordingly, she is an exemplary literary figure.
