L’œil du cycle. Réseaux textuels et stemmata codicum dans la tradition des textes arthuriens

This contribution extends these new approaches into an overarching vision of the textual tradition, seen in its entirety and in its vitality, by highlighting the potential of the stemma codicum. We will attempt to investigate it, including the blanks spaces within.
