Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book investigates the appearance of Western European romance in literature. Exploring its themes and motifs, the author suggests that romance originated as an intersection of western Celtic stories, eastern Arabic narratives, and the influence of the major events and personalities of the period from 1050-1200. The author posits that the strange and unfamiliar legends and tales of these cultures were welcomed and popularized rather than dismissed, creating a vibrant and unique literary phenomenon.
