Excerpt from The Romances of Chivalry in Italian Verse: Selections The long paragraph just cited is a com pendium of the history of French epic matter in Italy. Through the phases which it indicates we shall now pass, noting, however, that once the Italians begin to develop the matter, the term epic, as applied to it, becomes rather conventional than exact.1 The lack of a truly national spirit, which, it would seem, ought to inform a genuinely epic composition, and the importance given to elements of romantic adventure, should incline us to term the Italian works romances of chivalry. Certainly they belong as much to the domain of novelistic fiction as to that of stem heroic narrative. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
