Lais es una colección de doce poemas narrativos cortos escritos en francés antiguo por Marie de France en el siglo XII. Estos poemas, llenos de aventuras y amor, exploran temas de caballería, magia y el encuentro entre el mundo humano y el sobrenatural. En ellos, los lectores encontrarán caballeros que se transforman en hombres lobo, reyes que eligen a sus yernos por su capacidad de escalar montañas y niños abandonados con misteriosos objetos. Esta edición de Gallimard ofrece una cuidada selección de estos relatos medievales, acompañados de comentarios y análisis para una mejor comprensión del contexto histórico y literario.

Marie de France was a poet, likely born in France, who lived in England during the late 12th century. She lived and wrote at an unknown court, but she and her work were almost certainly known at the royal court of King Henry II of England. Virtually nothing is known of her life; both her given name and its geographical specification come from manuscripts containing her works. However, one written description of her work and popularity from her own era still exists. She is considered by scholars to be the first woman known to write francophone verse.
