Guillaume de Lorris (lived c. 1235)| French poet. He wrote the first 4,058 lines of the allegorical poem Roman de la Rose which, completed about 40 years later by Jean de Meung, is one of the most influential and representative works of French medieval literature. The aristocratic delicacy of Lorris's treatment stands in sharp contrast to Jean de Meung's cynicism. |
