{"product_id":"dutch-romances-iii-9781843843108","title":"Dutch Romances III","description":"The romances translated here are contained in the so-called \u003ci\u003eLancelot Compilation\u003c\/i\u003e. Compiled in the early fourteenth century by five scribes, its 241 extant folios contain the lion's share of Arthurian romance in Middle Dutch, no fewer than ten texts. The core of this compilation is comprised of translations into rhymed couplets of the \u003ci\u003eLancelot-Queste-Mort\u003c\/i\u003e, into which seven additional romances have been inserted. The result is a compilation that successfully transforms a number of disparate texts into an ordered sequence of ten Arthurian romances, a project that rivals similar ones in better known European vernaculars, and bears comparison with Malory's \u003ci\u003eMorte Darthur\u003c\/i\u003e. Parallel text with notes and an introduction.\u003cbr\u003e\u0026lt;  The romances are: the \u003ci\u003eWrake van Ragisel\u003c\/i\u003e (Vengeance of Raguidel), the \u003ci\u003eRidder metter mowen\u003c\/i\u003e (Romance of the Knight of the Sleeve), \u003ci\u003eLanceloet en het hert metde witte voet\u003c\/i\u003e (Lancelot and the Hart with the White Foot), \u003ci\u003eWalewein ende Keye\u003c\/i\u003e, and \u003ci\u003eTorec\u003c\/i\u003e.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e  David F.
