The butcher of Abbeville
Manage episode 392906787 series 3527006
A weary butcher stops in a priest’s village with nothing but a stolen sheep and a lot of nerve. By morning, he’s seduced the maid, seduced the priest’s mistress, sold the priest his own animal’s hide, and left a house full of chaos behind him.
By Eustache d’Amiens, Le bouchier d’Abevile is a ferociously funny fabliau about hypocrisy, sex, revenge—and getting fleeced in more ways than one.
