The original fairy-tale atmosphere intertwined with the realities of the contemporary world make this book unique. "Aucassin and Nicolete" is a well-known example of early European prose, which skillfully combines elements of a romantic story, motifs of chivalric traditions and fairy-tale motifs in a fragile love story of two young hearts.
