The Alexandreis (or Alexandreid) is a medieval Latin epic poem by Walter of Châtillon, a 12th-century French writer and theologian. It gives an account of the life of Alexander the Great, based on Quintus Curtius Rufus' Historia Alexandri Magni. The poem was popular and influential in Walter's own times: according to Henry of Ghent, it was more popular than Virgil's Aeneid in thirteenth-century schools. Translations were made into Old Spanish (Libro de Alexandre), Middle Dutch (Jacob van Maerlant's Alexanders Geesten) into Old Norse as the Alexanderssaga; Matthew of Vendôme and Alan of Lille borrowed from it and Henry of Settimello imitated it, but it is now seldom read. One line is sometimes quoted:

  • Alexandreis és un poema èpic medieval del segle xii. Constitueix l'obra més coneguda de Gualter de Châtillon, escriptor medieval en llengua llatina, tant en prosa com, i sobretot, en poesia, i una de les obres cabdals d'aquest període de l'edat mitjana. Es tracta d'una extensa obra dividida en 10 llibres, escrita aproximadament entre 1178 i 1182, en forma de 5.464 versos hexamètrics, on l'autor glossa la figura i les gestes d'Alexandre el Gran. El llibre estava dedicat al seu protector ; així, la unió de la primera lletra de cada capítol configura el seu nom en llatí (“GVILLERMUS”). (ca)
