Description

This study examines the literary representations of Gilles de Rais, serial-killer, devout Christian and Marchal de France. After briefly summarizing the historical outlines of Rais life, it examines four literary encounters (Huysmans L-bas (1891), Batailles Le Procs de Gilles de Rais (1965), Planchons Gilles de Rais (1975), Tourniers Gilles et Jeanne (1985)) to reveal how certain issues of modern aesthetics and ethics are elucidated and problematized.
