  • Abstract: The Abuzé en court is known by 9 manuscripts, 5 others that have disappeared, 5 incunabula editions and 3 ancient editions. The manuscript tradition shows the simultaneous diffusion of the work with luxury volumes in the 1470s and 1480s in the courts of France, Savoy and Burgundy. From 1479-1484, the edition Mansion compels us to consider the relationship it has with certain poorer manuscripts. In the long run, a new stemmatic hypothesis could better determine the date and origin of the text.
