| 520 | _a"The Flourishing of Romance and the Rise of Allegory" by George Saintsbury is a historical account of European literature written in the late 19th century. This volume explores the developments of vernacular literature during the twelfth and thirteenth centuries, particularly the flourishing of romance and the emergence of allegorical forms. The work examines various literary movements and their cultural contexts, with a particular focus on French literature and its influences on other vernacular traditions. The opening of the text establishes the purpose of the series it belongs to, which is to provide a comprehensive overview of European literature in its historical context. Saintsbury discusses the limitations of focusing solely on Latin literature, arguing that while it played a crucial role, the vernacular languages were essential to understanding the literary landscape of the period. He outlines the significance of Latin's influence on the development of vernacular literature, particularly through forms such as comic writing, hymns, and scholastic philosophy. This sets the stage for a detailed examination of the narratives and forms that characterized the literature of the twelfth and thirteenth centuries, hinting at deeper discussions regarding the chivalric romances and the complexities of medieval literary expression throughout the subsequent chapters.
