Chretien de Troyes was France's great medieval poet--inventor of
the genre of courtly romance and popularizer of the Arthurian
legend. The forty-four surviving manuscripts of his work (ten of
them illuminated) pose a number of questions about who used these
books and in what way. In "Sealed in Parchment," Sandra Hindman
scrutinizes both text and images to reveal what the manuscripts can
tell us about medieval society and politics.
