Abbreviated Style and les "Lais" de Marie de France [The author argues that Marie de France's rhetorical use of "abreviatio" (a term that emerged in twelfth-century theoretical treatises on rhetoric) is the most significant aspect of her compositional style, and shows her to be a sophisticated writer.
