Description
|
|
|
|
The legendary exploits of Rodrigo Diaz—a Castilian knight who was instrumental in reclaiming Spain from the moors—are commemorated in the anonymous 12th-century epic Poema de Mio Cid. Known by the Arabic honorific Cid ("lord"), Diaz was valiant in battle and unfailingly loyal to his King, but comes into conflict with the King's cowardly and sadistic sons. These excerpts from Spain's earliest known epic appear here in dual-language format.
