«Fabliaux» is Karine Tournade's collection of medieval satirical poems, published by Lire c'est partir in 2008 (126 pages, in French).
The work brings together fabliaux, French narrative poems from the 12th to 14th centuries that blend satire, eroticism and comedy. Lustful priests, cunning wives and deceived husbands appear in stories that criticize hypocrisy and the social order; this popular genre influenced Chaucer and Boccaccio.
