Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book is a critical edition of the oldest surviving French text of The Song of Roland, the epic poem which recounts the legendary defeat of Charlemagne's rearguard at the Battle of Roncevaux Pass in the 8th century. It contains diplomatic transcriptions of the poem as found in two manuscripts, with a detailed textual analysis and variants between the two. The editorial work undertaken in this book is particularly valuable because it precedes linguistic and philological developments of the 19th century that would influence later critical editions of the poem. This seminal edition continues to provide an essential foundation for the study of this foundational text in French medieval literature, and lays bare the linguistic and phonological complexities of the medieval text, providing access to the source material for those interested in the development of French philology and medieval literature. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item. N° de réf. du vendeur 9780259451570_0
