This collection of essays pays tribute to Nancy Freeman Regalado, a ground-breaking scholar in the field of medieval French literature whose research has always pushed beyond disciplinary boundaries. The articles in the volume reflect the depth and diversity of her scholarship, as well as her collaborations with literary critics, philologists, historians, art historians, musicologists, and vocalists - in France, England, and the United States.

EGLAL DOSS-QUINBY is Professor of French at Smith College. ROBERTA L. KRUEGER is Professor of French at Hamilton College. E. JANE BURNS is Professor of Women's
