This comparative 1997 study examines a medieval love story, Floire
and Blancheflor, and shows how writers from Spain, France, Italy,
England and Scandinavia reworked the story from the twelfth to the
sixteenth century to develop and emphasize social, political,
religious and artistic goals, while maintaining its entertaining
qualities. It shows the importance of a little-known medieval
Spanish version to the development of the story throughout Europe,
and especially as a precursor to Boccaccio's Il Filocolo, and
examines important issues of the development of prose fiction in
medieval and Renaissance Europe. This study is unique for its
breadth of coverage of one story and for its inclusion of Spain as
a significant participant in the development of medieval narrative.
