Abstract

This essay examines the use of outsider characters in the Middle Dutch romances of Torec and the Riddere metter Mouwen . It draws on the deployment of similar characters in two Latin romances, the Historia Meriadoci and De Ortu Waluuanii , to show a shared interest, across the Dutch and Latin texts, in courtliness and right rule.
