Machaut's reputation among contemporaries and successors as a master of poetics, and in particular of the debate genre, was second to none. This chapter focuses on how debate and dialogue operate across Machaut's Jugement poems, situating Machaut's debate poems within a long tradition of literary and practical debating. It looks briefly at the manuscript tradition of Machaut's works, and suggest how this new late-medieval poetic identity manifests itself in the material space of the codex or manuscript, fusing the physical body of the poet with the material means of transmission of his words: the notion of poet as book and book as poet. In the context of Machaut's writings, the chapter considers the manuscript as a space of playful dialogic exchange not only between texts, but between textual form and textual content, Machaut's scens and matere..
