About this listen

El Cid is the oldest Spanish epic poem preserved.

It is based on the true story of Rodrigo Díaz de Vivar, known as El Cid, and it takes place during the Spanish Reconquest.

This is the story of a brave man who took on the challenge of recovering his home country after it had been besieged.

This poem has been completely reworked and carefully adapted in modern English to allow for easy listening.

Enjoy!
