The chivalric tale Iwein, written by Hartmann von Aue (13th century) about a knight of King Arthur's Round Table, is translated in Italian for the very first time. Iwein is called upon to laboriously win back the love of his wife Laudine as well as his own social standing after losing his way because of his naivete and a series of unfortunate mistakes. It is a lion that will help him overcome the madness into which he has plunged and that will become for him a model of fidelity and love, as well as a companion on his adventures leading to the epilogue, a happy ending that is made possible also by the astute assistance of the handmaid Lunete.
