      Set in the context of Old French literature, these texts serve as a vital link between classical narratives and the emerging French romances of the 12th century. Composed around 1150 to 1165, they reflect the cultural transition of the time, blending ancient stories with the evolving style of medieval storytelling, particularly seen in the works of Chrétien de Troyes. The translations of The Roman de Thèbes and the Roman d'Eneas highlight this unique literary evolution.
