Ywain, the Knight of the Lion (Milestones of Thought)2 reviews
Chretien de Troyes, Robert William Ackerman, ...

Ungar Pub Co, 1979

chivalry at its best
Yvain is a beautiful tale of love and courtly society by the greatest storyteller of medieval France, presented here in a very clear (and relatively cheap) translation.

Anne of Denmark: Wife of James VI of Scotland, James I of England1 review
