Composed during the most difficult years of Ludovico Ariosto’s relationship with the Este court, the Satire are known for presenting a picture of their author as a simple, quiet-loving man, and also as a man who can speak only the truth. However, the self-portrait offered by the Satire of the author as a man incapable of lying stands in direct contrast to the depiction presented by St. John in canto 35 of the Orlando Furioso of all writers (and thus, implicitly, of Ariosto) as liars. This article investigates the relationship between such contrasting self-portraits of Ariosto, aiming to overcome the traditional opposition of satire as the mode for honest speech—and for a truthful portrayal of the author’s self—and epic as the mode for courtly flattering.  Composee pendant les annees les plus difficiles de sa relation avec la cour d’Este, les Satires de l’Arioste sont connues pour la representation qu’elles donnent de leur auteur comme un homme simple aimant la tranquillite et ne disant jamais rien que la verite. Toutefois, cette representation de l’auteur comme un homme incapable de mentir contredit directement la representation des ecrivains (incluant implicitement l’Arioste lui-meme comme menteurs, avancee par saint Jean dans le chant 35 de son Orlando Furioso .) Cet article examine donc les relations qu’entretiennent les differents autoportraits qu’offre l’Arioste et cherche a depasser l’opposition traditionnelle entre la satire comme forme du discours honnete — qui comprend l’autoportrait honnete de l’auteur —, et le discours epique comme mode de flatterie de cour.
