These
two papers were read by Rob Helmerichs and Emily Albu as a session at the Haskins

they provide a basis for the scholarly study of Rollo.
Rollo
as Historical Figure (Robert Helmerichs). An examination of the
historical evidence for Rollo's life.
Rollo
as Literary Figure (Emily Albu). A discussion of Rollo's literary
posterity in the 11th and 12th centuries.
