Harrison, Robert, trans. The Song of Roland. Mentor, New York, 1970. Harrison's introduction is sensible, well-researched, and concise.
 
Hollier, Denis, ed. A New History of French Literature. Harvard U.P., Cambridge, MA, 1989. The essays "Entering the Date" by John Benton, "The Birth of Medieval Studies" by R.
