*An English translation of this work, La bele Dame Sauns mercy, was published around 1526 in The Book of Fame Made by G. Chaucer. Modern scholars consider this a misattribution of the translation to Chaucer, and now attribute it to Richard Roos.

†An English translation of this work was published by William Caxton in 1484. The first page of this printing reads: “Here foloweth the copye of a lettre whyche maistre Alayn Charetier wrote to hys brother, whyche desired to come dwelle in Court, in whyche he reherseth many myserys & wretchydnesses therin vsed, For taduyse hym not to entre in to it”; the last page reads: “Thus endeth the Curial made by maystre Alain Charetier. Translated thus in Englyssh by Wylliam Caxton.”
