About Les Deux Amants

"Les Deux Amants" is a Breton lai, a type of narrative poem written by Marie de France sometime in the 12th century. The poem belongs to what is collectively known as The Lais of Marie de France. The literary work is one of the earliest examples of French literature. The Lais provide a glimpse into Medieval societies’ social and cultural dynamics while touching on courtly love, chivalry, and honor. Like the other lais in the collection, "Les Deux Amants" is written in Old French, rhyming octosyllabic couplets. "Les Deux Amanz" highlights two lovers who were so loyal to each other that they faced death rather than being separated.
