The 12 Lays of Marie de France offer one of the most striking collections of short narrative poems of the 12th century - two centuries before Chaucer. Written in Anglo-French, they contain beguiling and entertaining stories of love and romance, of chivalry and adventure with sometimes even a magical twist. They are especially unique in early literature by being ascribed to a female poet, Marie de France: in the very first Lay - 'Guigemar' - is the introductory line: ‘Hear my Lords, what Marie says, who does not wish to be forgotten in her time.’

An Amazing Translation!
Revisado: 12-29-20
Prof. Gallagher has truly crafted an artistic and wonderful translation of the "Lays...". When listening to these medieval tales of love and adventure, you will have no idea that they are translated from another language. Even though the stories are medieval, they are filled with emotion and excitement that rival the great works of literature. The readers do an exceptional job and are a joy to listen to. Listening to these tales was definitely the finest auditory literature experience I have ever had!
