Le Cheval Volant En Bois: Edition Des Deux Mises En Prose Du Cleomades d'Apres Le Manuscrit Paris, Bnf Fr. 12561 Et l'Imprime De Guillaume Leroy (Lyon, Ca. 1480)

Printed here are the two prose editions of Adenet le Roi's Cleomades that were published in the fifteenth century. Each redefines in its own way the themes of oriental folklore, fin'amor, and feudal realism. The critical apparatus in this volume allows for further appreciation of the civilizational, linguistic, and philological issues involved.
