About this ebook
Chrétien de Troyes' Four Arthurian Romances continued and expanded on existing Arthurian legends, but began the Arthurian Romance genre, so popular in Medieval literature. His tales often diverge from Arthur himself, focussing instead on the characters of his court. Chretien introduced Sir Lancelot and also the Holy Grail to the Arthurian legends. He is considered the first major French novelist.
Author
Chretien DeTroyes
Chrétien de Troyes was a French poet and known for his writing on Arthurian subjects, and for the first writing of Lancelot, the Knight of the Cart and Perceval, the Story of the Grail. Chrétien’s works, including Erec and Enide, Lancelot, Perceval, and Yvain, the Knight of the Lion, represent some of the best-regarded medieval literature. His use of structure, particularly in Yvain, has been seen as a step toward the modern novel.
