Chrétien de Troyes : inventor of the modern novel

Foster Erwin Guyer (Author)
"The purpose of this book is to attempt to restore to his proper historical position of high distinction the inventor of the novel, Chrétien de Troyes, a French author of the twelfth century. This great innovator has been mistreated, probably, by fate and the literary critics more than any other great genius in all the history of the world. His accomplishment is one of the greatest ever known in the history of literature" --Preface
