Joseph's De Bello Trojano would appear to have been based on Latin
versions of Greek works by writers known by the names of Dares
Phrygius and Dictys Cretensis. His poem is in six books and exists in
several MSS. It was printed at Basel, 1558, and the first book has been
edited by Jusserand, J. J. , Paris, 1877. For Dictys and Dares, see
eds. by Meister, F. , in Teubner library, Leipzig, 1872-3; and Körting, G. ,
Dictys u. Dares. Ein Beitrag z. Gesch. der Trojasage in ihrem Uber-
gange aus der antiken in die romantische Form, Halle, 1874. See also
below under Troy. Joseph of Exeter was also the author of a poem on
the third Crusade, Antiocheis, the greater portion of which is lost (see

Marie de France. The narrative lais of Marie de France were, apparently,
produced in England in the twelfth century, in the days of Henry II, to
whom they are dedicated. They are contained chiefly in Harl. MS, 978,
and consist of short verso tales, taken from Celtic tradition. She used
the legends of the Purgatory of St Patrick; Lanval (cf, the English
Sir Launfal of T. Chestre); Guingamor (cf. Bran); Laustic; Chevrefeuille
(cf. Tristram and Iseult), etc. See Petit de Julleville's Hist. de la

see especially the very beautiful Lai le Freine, in the Auchinleck MS,
and also the tale of Sir Degarre. The Lai le Freine, the story of
the girl exposed in the ash tree, will be found in the collections of Ellis
and Weber mentioned above. See also Varnhagen, H. , in Anglia, III,
and cf. the tale of patient Griselda, in its many forms. Marie de
France should also be remembered for her Ysopet, or book of fables,
based on earlier English (the so-called Alfred's Aesop) and Latin
collections. See Warncke, K. , as above, Vol. vi, and Jacobs, J. , Fables
of Aesop, 1889.
