By reading this summary, you will learn how to deal with failure using medieval values as inspiration.

You will also discover :

• that the road to success always goes through one or more failures;
• how to overcome the shame of making a fool of yourself in public;
• that you have to lose yourself a little before you can find your way back to success;
• that the vocabulary of medieval literature, even if it seems obsolete, allows for a better understanding of today's failures.

Failure constitutes the very condition for surpassing oneself. It is above all the starting point for novels of a very particular and very common genre: the novel of apprenticeship. One of the first and most famous apprenticeship novels, Yvain or the Knight with the Lion, is a medieval novel of chivalry composed around 1176 by Chrétien de Troyes. It offers clear and pedagogical answers to the two questions you ask yourself when faced with failure. First of all, how do you get over it? Then, how do you start again to succeed?
