Between Courtly Literature and Al-Andaluz: Oriental Symbolism and Influences in the Romances of Chretien de Troyes - Studies in Medieval History and Culture
Michelle Reichert
Chretien de Troyes uses repeated references to Spain throughout his romances. Demonstrating that these allusions to Spain occur at pivotal moments in the romances and are often coupled with linguistic 'riddles', this book states that these references seem to support the idea that some of their themes in his romances are of "Andalusi" origin.
