دانلود کتاب Arthurian Literature XXVI

The Arthurian material collected in this volume ranges widely in time and space, from a Latin romance based on Welsh sources to the post-Christian Arthur of modern fiction and film. It begins with a tribute to the late Derek Brewer, a reprinting of the classic introduction to his edition of the last two tales of Malory's 'Morte Darthur'. Further subjects covered include a possible source manuscript for Malory's first tale; the 'Arthuricity' of the little-known Latin romance 'Arthur and Gorlagon'; images of sterility and fertility in the continuations of Chrétien's 'Conte du Graal'; and early modern responses to Geoffrey of Monmouth's account of Arthur's dealings withRome. Norris Lacy ranges widely over the evolution of the Arthurian legend, and Ronald Hutton considers representations of both Christian and pagan religion in modern novels and cinema. The volume ends with a bibliographical supplement on recent additions to Arthurian fiction.
