Book Description
Broadside ballads were the printed sheets of verse that were sold in the streets from the early 16th to the late 19th century. They were the documents of the folk ballad, the forerunner of the popular newspaper. Through four centuries such sheets have been eagerly bought and the songs sung by the common people. The whole field of street literature has begun to emerge as a subject in its own right, with great relevance to mass culture. For such study, this work is an original, and primary source. -- Provided by publisher.

Book Description
The twelfth-century French poet Chrétien de Troyes is a major figure in European literature. His courtly romances fathered the Arthurian tradition and influenced countless other poets in England as well as on the continent. Yet because of the difficulty of capturing his swift-moving style in translation, English-speaking audiences are largely unfamiliar with the pleasures of reading his poems. Now, for the first time, an experienced translator of medieval verse who is himself a poet provides a translation of Chrétien’s major poem, Yvain, in verse that fully and satisfyingly captures the movement, the sense, and the spirit of the Old French original. Yvain is a courtly romance with a moral tenor; it is ironic and sometimes bawdy; the poetry is crisp and vivid. In addition, the psychological and the socio-historical perceptions of the poem are of profound literary and historical importance, for it evokes the emotions and the values of a flourishing, vibrant medieval past.
