First line
In Classical mythology the invention of writing is alternatively ascribed to the Phoenician Cadmus, the Greek Hermes, and the Egyptian Thoth.
From the rear cover
'An ambitious thesis, powerfully and, at times, brilliantly argued. It not only provides important and original analyses of Old French literary works; it succeeds in situating medieval French literature at the cross-roads of an emerging modernity in early western cultural development.'-Brian Stock, Pacific Institute of Medieval Studies, Toronto
