Appears in 5 videos · 5 passages.
Dominique Pagani mentions King Mark only through the legend of Tristan and Iseult, where he forms a triangle with the two lovers1. He presents him as Tristan's uncle, whose heir Tristan also is, and whom this nephew betrays2. He recalls that it is to Mark that Tristan brings back the princess of Ireland3. He also points out that the potion was meant for the old king, to restore his vigour4: the draught thus appears first as a remedy intended for Mark. Finally, he dwells on the ending, where Mark arrives to forgive, but too late5. These mentions are brief and spread between 2015 and 2024. They occur in an abecedary, in sessions on crisis and war, then, in 2024, in sessions on illness, misfortune and the essence of evil. Mark is not the subject of an analysis in his own right. He serves as a landmark in the story Dominique Pagani retells.
