First sentence: THE courtly romances of the twelfth and thirteenth centuries may seem, at first reading, very remote from modern fiction; literary and social conventions have changed greatly between the era which produced the Yvain and the Chatelain de Coucy and that which has given us Un coeur de femme and The Patrician.
