At least three scribes shared the work of copying this imposing
manuscripts of over 650 leaves in the early years of the 14th
century. The Roman de Tristan en prose that it contains, a revised
version of the myth of Tristan in the style of Lancelot en prose,
is however, incomplete at both the beginning and the end. This
work, originally written at the beginning of the 13th century, was
repeatedly reproduced during the middle ages; it is found in over
80 manuscripts, which transmit at least four different versions.
