These essays are a tribute to one of North America’s most distinguished scholars of Old French literature, Norris J. Lacy. Dealing with a wide range of medieval works, they reflect the honorand’s own scholarly interests in medieval narrative and its reception in later periods. Together, the contributions are witness not only to the esteem in which Norris Lacy is held by the profession but also to the collegial spirit of the international community of medievalists.
