I romanzi cortesi

His choices seem to define much of what we think of as classic Arthurian stories. I wonder what inspired his selection of these particular romances.

The tales are full of knights, quests, and magic, but sometimes I wondered how much of it was meant to be taken literally versus as allegory or entertainment.

His storytelling feels both poetic and structured. I'm curious about what literary techniques he used that kept these stories memorable across centuries.
