Richard the Redeless ("Richard without counsel") is an anonymous fifteenth-century English alliterative poem that critiques Richard II's kingship and his court, seeking to offer Richard retrospective (or even posthumous) advice, following his deposition by Henry IV in 1399. The poet claims that "Richard has been poorly advised, his kingdom mismanaged, his loyal subjects ill-served." The author believes that the advice he imparts will be of great aid to any guiding the kingdom in future years. The poem also contains elements of satire, especially towards court manners and clothing fashions.

- Richard the Redeless (« Richard sans conseil ») est un poème allitératif en moyen anglais rédigé dans les premières années du XVe siècle. Il s'intéresse au règne du roi Richard II d'Angleterre (1377-1399), dont il retrace les vicissitudes, dans la tradition du Pierre le laboureur de William Langland. Comme l'indique le titre de son œuvre, le poète anonyme s'attache à montrer comment Richard a causé la perte du royaume d'Angleterre en s'entourant de mauvais conseillers. Il utilise des jeux de mots et des allégories animalières, par exemple en dépeignant Richard et son rival Henri Bolingbroke comme des perdrix. L'unique copie subsistante de Richard the Redeless figure dans un manuscrit du deuxième quart du XVe siècle conservé à la bibliothèque de l'université de Cambridge sous la cote Ll.iv.14. Il en occupe les folios 107b à 119b, après une copie du texte B de Pierre le laboureur. (fr)
