A retelling in prose of the adventures of Charlemagne's fearless knight Roland--from his first childhood feat to his tragic and heroic death at Roncevalles.
The Song of Roland is an 11th-century epic poem based on the Battle of Roncevaux Pass in 778, during the reign of Charlemagne. It is the oldest surviving major work of French literature and exists in various manuscript versions, which testify to its enormous and enduring popularity in the 12th to 16th centuries. |
