Just a quick note, in our last post we explored the work of the early French poet Marie de France, and some related non-historical legends that relate to Saladin. In particular, a legend that Saladin’s grandmother was a French noblewoman.
I mentioned that I was producing a free Standard eBooks edition of the Lais of Marie, and I am happy to report it is now available. You can read for free at the link below, or download an ePub for your favorite reading app or device. Enjoy!
