JEAN

This article appears in Volume V15, Page 298 of the Encyclopedia Britannica.

Encyclopedia Britannica - Main :: INV-JED
JEAN D'
ARRAS
 , a 15th-century trouvere, about whose personal history nothing is known, was the collaborator with
Antoine
  du Val and Fouquart de Cambrai in the authorship of a collection of stories entitled Evangiles de quenouille. They purport to
record
  the narratives of a group of ladies at their spinning, who relate the current theories on a
great
  variety of subjects. The
work
 
dates
  from the middle of the 15th century and is of considerable value for the light it throws on medieval manners.
There were many editions of this book in the 15th and 16th centuries, one of which was printed by Wynkyn de Worde in English, as The Gospelles of Dystaves. A modern edition (Collection Jannet) has a
preface
  by Anatole France.
Another trouvere, JEAN D'
ARRAS
  who flourished in the second half of the r4th century, wrote, at the request of John, duke of
Berry
 , a
long
 
prose
  romance entitled Chronique de la princesse. It relates with many digressions the antecedents and life of the fairy Ivlelusine (q.v.).
