Cligés is a chivalric romance written by Chrétien de Troyes, one of the most important authors of French medieval literature. This edition, published by Alianza Editorial in its 'El Libro de Bolsillo' collection, features a Spanish translation with a prologue and notes by Joaquín Rubio Tovar. The work narrates the adventures and misadventures of its characters in a courtly and chivalrous context, exploring themes such as courtly love, honor, and identity.
Chrétien de Troyes was a French poet and trouvère known for his writing on Arthurian subjects such as Gawain, Lancelot, Perceval, and the Holy Grail. Chrétien's chivalric romances, including Erec and Enide, Lancelot, Perceval, and Yvain, represent some of the best-regarded works of medieval literature. His use of structure, particularly in Yvain, has been seen as a step toward the modern novel.
