This poem was by William of Lorris, written in the 13 century of the Middle Ages. Stories told from the mouth were later put into books for people to read them. Books became treasures during this period of time. As writing progresses so did the different styes of writing. Writing utensils consisted of wooden tablets, black wax, and lam skins. Scholars were the ones who were most well known for their writing and work. Many different types of literature developed by different people. Romance, comedies, tragedies, adventures, and nature and its surroundings. Raphael Holinshed, Dante, and Geoffry Chaucer were just a couple of famous medieval writers. Writers liked writing in depth stories and telling them aloud. Some the pieces of literature talk about faith and physical force.
