Erec and Enide

Erec and Enide, the first of five surviving Arthurian romantic poems by twelfth-century French poet Chr_tien de Troyes, narrates a vivid chapter from the legend of King Arthur. Now an experienced translator of medieval works who is himself a poet has translated Erec and Enide in verse form that fully captures the movement, the sense, and the spirit of the Old French original.
