Sinopsis
From 1934 to 1941, the women’s magazine Redbook published four stories by F. Scott Fitzgerald set in early medieval France, half of an eight-story cycle the author did not live long enough to complete. Deemed by Fitzgerald’s daughter to be unworthy of reprinting, the “Philippe, Count of Darkness” stories remain some of the most obscure work by an otherwise widely read and thoroughly studied American author.
This essay considers Fitzgerald’s “Philippe” stories through the lens of American medievalism, our ongoing tendency to rework and selectively reimagine the Middle Ages to suit our changing assumptions and agendas. Seen in this light as fascinating failures, these stories hold value as relics of the medievalism of Fitzgerald’s life and times, illuminating from a strange new angle an author we thought we knew.
