Leue - Elegast (6th secondary)

True history and all true May I tell you, listen to it Thus begins Karel ende Elegast and it is immediately clear that the writer wants you to believe him. He emphasizes the authenticity of the story, asks permission to tell, and commands you to listen. Entire essays are written about those two verses alone. In total, there are 1419 verses, enough for a Wikipedia of text analysis. Een Vlaamse classic full of food for thought gets new life! After "Van den vos die amoc maecte", Leue tackles a second text from the Canon to feel how words can connect you with people from eight hundred years ago and at the same time with people from Ypres to Tongeren. The commonality shatters distance and time.
