Date13th century
GenreChivalric romance

Le Roman de Silence is an octosyllabic verse Old French roman in the Picard dialect, dated to the first half of the 13th century.[1] It is the only work attributed to Heldris de Cornuälle (Heldris of Cornwall, an Arthurian pseudonym). Due to the text's late discovery and editing in 1927 and 1978, as well as its discussion of nature vs. nurture, transvestitism, sex and gender, and gender roles, the roman has attracted considerable interest both from medievalists and the field of Anglo-American gender studies.[2]

Tardivement redécouvert (en 1927), plus tardivement édité encore (pour la première fois en 1972), et donc longtemps oublié, Le Roman de Silence d’Heldris de Cornuälle – un auteur par ailleurs inconnu – ne l’est plus aujourd’hui, étant depuis les vingt dernières années l’objet d’un intérêt toujours plus vif de la part de la critique, d’ailleurs surtout anglo-saxonne.
