No references found | You can go back almost 1,000 years to an epic poem called The Song of Roland in which Roland and his heroic knights are supposedly wiped out by treacherous Muslims as they attempt to cross a mountain path. 00 Paperback PQ1523 When students and scholars speak of The Song of Roland, they generally refer to the text in the manuscript Digby 23 at Oxford University, but American scholar of French language and literature Burland points out that the story of the deaths of Roland and the 12 peers of France at the Battle of Roncevaux circulated in countless oral and written versions. The French term for this is battre son coulpe; in the Song of Roland, the title character, Charlemagne's nephew, does this at the point in the story when he knows he is mortally wounded. |
