Abstract
The present study deals with the conceptions of love in medieval literature, more specifically with the case of Aucassin and Nicolette. The aim is to highlight the various facets of love that the two heroes Aucassin and Nicolette have shown in the narrative. In order to re-store the quintessence of the results of this study, we had to apply a mixture of three approaches, on the one hand the prospective and descriptive approaches, and on the other hand the socio-critical approach. The results obtained clearly showed the physiognomy and the polysemy of love expressed by the two young lovers Aucassin and Nicolette. These two linked destinies have expressed different types of love: a juvenile or infantile love, thwarted by their parents, an idyllic, a fairy or a dreamlike one, a fictitious love and a chivalrous one, an inseparable and initiatory love-sickness, a love-folly, a possible love.
