AB  - The fifteenth-century prose adaptation of Chrétien de ­Troyes’s Erec et Enide adds a tournament after the ­couple’s coronation. It forms a pendant to the wedding tournament, which the adaptor rewrites. Both events are presented as mêlées, rather than individual jousts. Why the prose author made these choices is a question that this essay attempts to answer. The prose emphasizes ­Erec’s ­chivalric prowess, proving that he is prepared to rule his kingdom.
