Paperback, VI+421 p., 9 b/w ill., 156 x 234 mm. ISBN 9782503507217. Le manuscrit, issu de la bibliotheque ducale, fait allusion a des evenements qui se sont produits entre 1454 (date du recit du Banquet de Faisan de Lille et du "registre" des voeux prononces par le duc et les nobles) et 1463/64 (date de la Bulle de croisade de Pie II et de l'Epitre a la Maison de Bourgogne). Il a du etre etabli a ce moment, dans un contexte difficile, pour rassembler des arguments en faveur d'une croisade a laquelle Philippe le Bon etait sur le point de renoncer. Les voeux, en partie inedits, expriment un sentiment d'appartenance au monde bourguignon, une adhesion aux ideaux de l'Eglise, mais aussi une analyse realiste de la situation. Un index des "vouhans" eclaire la diversite de leurs personnalites et fait vivre un milieu. Loin d'etre consideres domme des "serments apres boire", ces voeux apparaissent, a la lumiere des textes ecclesiastiques, du poeme sur la mort qui clot le manuscrit, comme sinceres et reflechis.
