MARTIN H. JONES, ROY ALBERT WISBEY - Chrétien de Troyes and the German Middle Ages

Title: Chrétien de Troyes and the German Middle Ages
Description: Boydell & Brewer, 1993. Hardcover. Pp: 341. The pre-eminent role of Chrétien de Troyes in the formation of Arthurian romance is reflected in the swift and brilliant response of German courtly poets to his works. Within a few years of their composition, Erec et Enide and Yvain were adapted for German audiences by Hartmann von Aue, while Chrétien's unfinished Grail-story was taken up by Wolfram von Eschenbach and brought to a triumphant conclusion in Parzival. In this volume a distinguished international team of scholars contrast the treatment and reception of the stories in Germany with their French originals.
