Abstract
This paper proposes an analysis of various misogynistic anecdotes that are inserted within the idealized framework of the Arthurian romance, generally considered as an exaltation of courtly love. The study starts with a reflection on this ideal of courtly love and an analysis of some of the misogynistic examples taken from various examples of the Arthurian cycle. It essentially deals with the episodes of the «magic horn» and the «badly cut coat», which appear in independent stories and also in several Arthurian romances.
