Excerpt from Aucassin and NicoleteThe story of Aucassin and Nicolete was unknown to the general reader in England until Walter Pater first published his Renaissance. In that hotly discussed book an essay on Two Early French Stories deals with Ami and Amile, the friends, and with Aucassin and Nicolete, the lovers.
