   It is presented as a prose narrative unlike the other Yvain romances, and is preserved in three manuscripts – Stockholm 6, AM 489, and Stockholm 46 – though only Stockholm 46 contains the complete tale. 36 The language feels terse and occasionally impersonal, lacking the rhyme and flavor of English, French, and German versions.

   Is Yvain a French romance?

   • Even if Chrétien did have Welsh sources on hand, Yvain is far too different from its source material to be anything other than a high romance. Owain, on the other hand, might be what a French romance would look like in the Welsh tradition, and perhaps it is a glimpse of what the roots of Yvain may have been.

   Does Yvain have a lion?

   • More importantly, however, the lion acts as Yvain's second, serving as a mighty companion and often rescues him in spots of trouble. In fact, the lion aids him in all of his further adventures with the exception of his battle with Gawain. Yvain is on a quest to regain his knighthood and to re-earn the love of his lady.

   Is Yvain an immigrant?

   • It may be tempting to conclude that Yvain himself is an immigrant from the Celtic tradition. Two prominent medieval romances pertaining to Yvain, Owain: chwedl iarlles Y ffynnon (Owain: The Lady of the Fountain) and Chrétien’s Yvain, le chevalier au lion, seem to draw from a common source.

   What does Yvain mean in Chrétien?

   • Here, Yvain's meaning is clear. In Chrétien, he holds no responsibility for the slaying of the Fountain Knight. The act is done out of self-defense, and rightly or wrongly he is still alive at the present moment thanks to divine providence. Iven, however, addresses her differently.
