Abstract
Plastic arts and literature have been related in many ways throughout history. The ruling classes have been aware of this fact, so that artistic production has a wide repertoire in the specific case of images of power. The aim of this paper is to reflect on this link, through the analysis of a text (La Chanson de Roland) and a small equestrian sculpture (Charlemagne?); and to determine whether it is possible to classify it as a work of world literature, comparing it to works that already own that description.
