Guiron le Courtois

Guiron and the lady fall in love, but the courteous knight remains loyal to his friend Danyn.

The Palamedes, Guiron Compilation texts originating in 1235-1240, create new adventures around the Tristan and Lancelot-Grail legends by going back to the heroes of the previous generation.

The title refers to the Saracen knight Palamedes, whose father Esclabor also plays a role.

Some versions identify Palamedes as one of the central figures, but Guiron le Courtois and Meliodas are the most important characters.

[1] Later versions including the early 16th-century printed editions produced in Paris, are divided into two parts, with the first entitled Meliadus de Leonnoys and the second Gyron le Courtoys.
