Description: 1735 Romance of the Rose Guillaume de Lorris Medieval de Meun Flamel Alchemy 3v “The more a man gazes on what he loves, the more he sets fire to his heart and bastes it with bacon fat.” ― Guillaume de Lorris, The Romance of the Rose The ‘Roman de la Rose’ is a famous 13th-century Medieval French poem written as an allegorical dream sequence. It was written by Guillaume de Lorris who sought to express the feelings of romantic love, sexuality, and chivalry. It was completed by Jean de Meun who continued the work begun by Lorris. Thought to be the most widely read book other than the Bible in the 13th- and 14th-centuries, it was highly influential on other authors including notably Geoffrey Chaucer. This 18th-century edition was published in Amsterdam printed in three volumes. This particular edition is of note, not just for containing the ‘Roman de la Rose’, but also de Meun’s “Romantraces of the Wandering Alchemist’ and a short treatise on the alchemy of Nicolas Flamel!
