Abstract Despite the conservative programs of John Lydgate’s and Robert Henryson’s fifteenth-century retellings of the “cock and jewel” fable, these texts find ways to provoke both their own audiences and us as modern readers. This essay will demonstrate that the fable’s provocations reveal themselves in the quotidian vocality of the medieval chicken yard. The soundscape of this space attunes the poetic audience to variations in the pace of rime royal, and this complex pacing draws out new meanings of the fabular moral. When read in terms of poultry sound, both Henryson and Lydgate’s verses provoke readers to negotiate nuances of relation between individual experience and generalities of convention in formulating an understanding of value.

禽的挑衅:十五世纪寓言中的公鸡和R皇家

摘要尽管约翰·利德盖特(John Lydgate)和罗伯特·亨利森(Robert Henryson)在15世纪对“公鸡与珠宝”寓言进行了重述,但这些著作还是找到了激起他们自己的读者和我们这些现代读者的方式。本文将证明该寓言的挑衅在中世纪养鸡场的日常声音中得以展现。这个空间的音景使诗情画意的听众们对皇家雾的节奏产生了共鸣,而这种复杂的节奏又勾勒出虚构道德的新含义。当以家禽的声音来阅读时,亨利森和利德盖特的经文都激发读者就个人经验与惯例的一般性之间的细微差别进行谈判,以形成对价值的理解。
