Following Lisa's requests and Dennis's many helpful suggestions, I can only add a tiny but useful article on the context of Chretien's compositions, written from a different angle: Ad PUTTER, 'Knights and clerics at the court of Champagne: Chretien de Troyes's romances in context'. *Medieval Knighthood, V. Papers from the Sixth Strawberry Hill Conference 1994*, eds. Stephen Church and Ruth Harvey (Woodbridge: Boydell & Brewer, 1995), 243-266. Ad discusses the court of Henri le LIberal, count of Champagne from 1152 until his death in 1181, which was frequented by Chretien, Nicolas de Clairvaux and numerous other literati.
