Immerse yourself in the Arthurian legend with 'Perceval or the Tale of the Grail', an unfinished but essential work by Chrétien de Troyes. This edition from Espasa-Calpe, S.A., translated by Martín de Riquer, will transport you to the 12th century through the story of Perceval and his quest for the Grail. A must-have classic for lovers of medieval literature and chivalry stories.
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.
