In the medieval Low Countries (modern-day Belgium and the Netherlands), Arthurian
romance flourished in the thirteenth and fourteenth centuries. The Middle Dutch poets
translated French material (like Chrétien?s Conte du Graal and the Prose Lancelot),
but also created romances of their own, like Walewein. This book provides a current
overview of the Dutch Arthurian material and the research that it has provoked. Geographically,
the region is a crossroads between the French and Germanic spheres of influence, and
the movement of texts and manuscripts (West to East) reflects its position, as revealed
by chapters on the historical context, the French material and the Germanic Arthuriana
of the Rhinelands. Three chapters on the translations of French verse texts, the translations
of French prose texts, and on the indigenous romances form the core of the book, augmented
by chapters on the manuscripts, on Arthur in the chronicles, and on the post-medieval
Arthurian material
