Description

In the 16th century, the multi-volume chivalry romance Amadis conquered the still nascent book market and became a regular bestseller. Despite its early popularity, German research has tended to pay little attention to this romance. This new narratological study undertakes an overall interpretation of the work. Applying the model of series research, it shows that Amadis may be the very first serial romance.
