Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book charts the development of the chivalric romance, from its origins in French folklore to its flowering in the Italian Renaissance, focusing on Orlando, the most enduring knight-errant of them all. The author traces the evolution of the Orlando tales through the chansons de geste, the Arthurian romances, and the prose cycles, showing how they were shaped by the changing social and cultural norms of medieval Europe. The book argues that the chivalric romance, far from being a frivolous diversion, was a rich and complex literary form that reflected the deepest values and aspirations of medieval society, exploring themes such as love, heroism, and the nature of good and evil. The author also examines the influence of the chivalric romance on literature and culture up to the present day. This book is essential reading for anyone interested in medieval literature, the history of chivalry, or the enduring legacy of the chivalric ideal.
