The Critical Romances of Chrétien de Troyes Jørgen Bruhn rereads the well-known but still intriguing chivalric novels of the medieval French author Chrétien de Troyes (from the second half of the twelfth century, probably in northern France). Jørgen Bruhn - who is trained in modern comparative literature and literary theory - engages in a meeting with the medieval texts where the "strange" medieval contexts and texts are played up against more familiar contemporary concern UR - https://search.ebscohost.com/login.aspx?direct=true&scope=site&db=nlebk&AN=523963 ER -
