An illustrated compendium of Arthurian legend draws on the romance masterpieces of Geoffrey of Monmouth, Chreatien de Troyes, and Sir Thomas Malory to recount the myths of Arthur and his knights of the Round Table. This book gives a coherent account of the "King Arthur" stories.
The author goes through the massive relevant literature-romances and poems in middle and early modern English, and in various vintages of several other languages-to arrive at a reasonably balanced narrative that gathers all the main characters and the principal tales associated with them. |
