This is a critical edition of a short text of the 15th century entitled Istoire de la Chastelaine du Vergier et de Tristan le Chevalier -- a late prose version of the Chastelaine de Vergi which had enjoyed great success and was much imitated in different European literatures from the 15th to the 16th century (including the seventy nouvelles of Marguerite de Navarre’s Heptameron (1559)).

The volume includes an introduction, a comparative study of the verse and the prose versions, a description of the manuscript, and a study of the language, as well as notes, a glossary, an index, and a bibliography.

Dr Jean-François Kosta-Théfaine works on fourteenth- and fifteenth-century French literature and is associate researcher at the Centre d'Etudes des Textes Médiévaux of the Université de Rennes 2.
