	Troyes Revisited
		Troyes, the old capital of the Comtes de Champagne, was chosen as the meeting place for this confraternity of historians, art historians, preservationists, master stained-glass specialists, and artists for its rich concentration of stained-glass windows.
		And Troyes was in the middle of it all.
		Troyes would be unthinkable without its wood-frame buildings, narrow alleys, intriguing nooks and crannies, old churches and their stained-glass windows, cobbled streets and pedestrian precincts.

		Then in the ninth century, Troyes was jolted by another wave of invasion, this time from the redoubtable Vikings, who had landed in what was to be known as Normandy and burned and pillaged with impunity all the way to the heart of Champagne.
		Out of Troyes the following morning in the cool fall Champagne weather our car threaded its way over the gentle hills that would be covered with vineyards in due time and now had been prepared and raked smooth to present in ochre a picture-perfect vista of bucolic peace and serenity.
		To this land that survived ages of vicissitudes, to Troyes and Champagne Ardenne, to the hills and vineyards, the champagne domains, the upper Seine River, the châteaus, the church spires, the gargoyles, and Jacques and Martine, it is fitting not to say adieu or good-bye, but to say A bientôt.

	Chretien de Troyes, Arthurian Romances (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-09-18)
		These stories and their embellishments come from the fervid imagination of Chretien de Troyes, one of the fathers of Arthurian legend (For those of us who don't speak French, his name is most easily pronounced "Kray-tee-en doo Twah").
		Arthur never cut such a splendid figure on the literary scene before de Troyes wrote his Romances in the twelfth century, and it is arguably due to de Troyes that Camelot is a household name to this day.
		Chretien de Troyes wrote for distinguished patrons, most notably Eleanor of Aquitaine's daughter, Marie, Countess of Champagne, and Philip of Alsace, Count of Flanders.
