The Roman de Thèbes and the Roman d'Eneas translated in this book belong to a group of Old French texts known as the romances of antiquity (romans d'antiquité). Composed between c. 1150 and c. 1165, they create a bridge between classical tales and the burgeoning French romances as represented especially by Chrétien de Troyes.
