This critical edition of Cligésis the first since Wendelin Foerster's in (1884) to take account of allthe manuscripts.

Based on the Guiot manuscript, it contains many emendations, producing a text closer to that of Chrétien's original.

Variant apparatus, notes, glossary, and editorial comment on the manuscripts accompany the text. STEWART GREGORY is in the Department of French, Leicester University; the late CLAUDE LUTTRELL was formerly in the Department of English at the same university, and is known for his books and articles on 12c French Arthurian romance.
