With his first book, Le Graal et la Littérature (L’Âge d’homme, 1983), Alexandre Leupin established himself as a pionnier of the renewal of Medieval studies through contemporary theory. His second work, Barbarolexis, Medieval Literature and Sexuality (Harvard, 1989; Italian translation, Cuculibri 1992) is a fundamental exploration of sexual metaphors in Medieval and Renaissance literature, grounded on rhetoric, theology and psychoanalysis.
