Marital love is one of the major themes in medieval French literature. The paper aims to investigate this theme in Christine de Pizan’s heterogeneous collection of poems entitled Autres Balades. In particular, this contribution proposes a critical edition of two Ballads, namely No. 8 (Dieux! On se plaint trop durement) and No. 26 (Doulce chose est que mariage). The results of the study show the persistence of the theme in the female lyric tradition. Moreover, the resulting commentary reveals important influences of the Old French chansons de malmariée on Christine de Pizan’s Ballads
