Tells the story of Roland's song from the very dim beginnings on the steppes of Scandinavia by way of the Sagas, then over the great migratory period of the Salic and Carolingian Franks into mediaeval France, again by way of the extant documents such as the Lex Salica, the Chant of Hilderband, Saint Léger, Muspilli, the Oaths of Strasbourg, Saint Alexis and the Chant of Louis. The study ends of the battlefield of Roncevaux where legendary Song and History interweave to create the epic tale of Roland.

Work Description
Recounts the historical, literary, linguistic and geographic sources of the epic tale of the French mediaeval knight, Roland, culled from the Scandinavian Sagas, the Lex Salica, the Chant of Hilderband, Muspilli, Héliand, the Evangiles of Otfried, Saint Léger, Saint Alexis, Sainte Eulalie, the Oaths of Strasbourg and the Chant of Louis. The Song of Roland is not only a French mediaeval creation, but a European one, whose geographic and cultural itinerary streams through the Spanish Roncevaux where the famous battle raged, the Anglo-Normand dialect in which it was written, the Northern-Germanic linguistic expressions and religious themes that embolden the plot.
