A fine collection...an excellent introduction to Chretien's world
and work. Highly recommended. CHOICE Chretien de Troyes is arguably
the creator of Arthurian romance, and it is on his work that later
writers have based their interpretations. This book offers both
crucial information on, and a comprehensive coverage of, all
aspectsof the work of Chretien de Troyes - the literary and
historical background, patronage, his influence on other writers,
manuscripts and editions of his work and, at the heart of the
volume, major essays on the themes, techniques and artistic
achievements in each of his compositions; the contributions, all
from leading experts in Chretien and related studies, have been
commissioned especially for this volume and are designed to remain
accessible to studentswhile also addressing specialists in
Arthurian studies and Chretien de Troyes. They reflect the most
current critical and scholarly views on one of the greatest of
medieval authors. CONTRIBUTORS: JOHN W. BALDWIN, JUNEHALL MCCASH,
