Abstract
A study of the reception of the myth of Charlemagne in medieval England, looking at both the Old French and Middle English texts. The analsysis examines the manuscript contexts in which each text is found and then turns to detailed considerations of the three narrative strands found in both vernaculars: the narratives of Fierabras, Otinel and the Battle of Roncevaux.
