André de France

André de France or André de Paris is an Old French romance, written in the 12th century, whose text is now lost.[1] The eponymous hero was in love with a queen, and eventually died of love.

Stroński has listed 22 passages by troubadours that reference the story,[2] including two by Raimbaut de Vaqueiras.[3][4] It may have been written in the form of a short narrative poem.[2]
