The Song of Roland (La Chanson de Roland) is an 11th-century epic poem about the Battle of Roncevaux Pass (or Roncesvalles) fought by Roland and his fellow paladins. The Song is written in Old French and is based on historical events surrounding the battle of August 15, 778 in which the rear-guard of Charlemagne's retreating Franks was attacked by Basques seeking revenge for the Frankish attack on Pamplona, Spain. This is of course an English translation priced with students in mind.
