La Legende de Guillaume d’Orange By Paul Tuffrau. (The Legend of William of Orange) – In French language.
***
1st Edition
***
Crowned by the French Academy, the story was established gesture from the twelfth century songs, translated and reworked by Paul Tuffrau, who was able to make them accessible to the modern reader, while preserving the original stylistic grace. In the manner of a troubadour, he tells the epic story of a great feudal baron and transports us to the heart of a troubled high Middle Ages, home to the fate of France and of Western Christianity while beset by Saracens.
