The Alexandreis of Walter of Châtillon : a twelfth-century epic : a verse translation

Author:	Walter, of Châtillon; David Townsend
Publisher:	Philadelphia, Pa. : University of Pennsylvania Press, ©1996.
Series:	The Middle Ages series.

Summary:	David Townsend's translation - the first ever into English verse - affords modern readers a vivid sense of the aesthetic appeal and sophisticated artistry of Walter's poem. A concise introduction sets out the poem's background and significance in literary history, while also suggesting how Walter's text resonates with the literary sensibilities of our own times.
