They have inspired some of the most important works of European literature, particularly in the medieval period: the romances of Chrétien de Troyes, Wolfram von Eschenbach's Parzival, Sir Gawain and the Green Knight and Malory's Le Morte d'Arthur. In the nineteenth century, interest in the Arthurian legend revived with Tennyson, Wagner and Twain. This Companion outlines the evolution of the legend from the earliest documentary sources to Spamalot, and analyses how some of the major motifs of the legend have been passed down in both medieval and modern texts. With a map of Arthur's Britain, a chronology of key texts and a guide to further reading, this volume itself will contribute to the continuing fascination with the King and his many legends.Cambridge companions to literature.Arthurian romancesHistory and criticismRomances, EnglishHistory and criticismEnglish literatureMiddle English, 1100-1500History and criticismArthurian romancesHistory and criticism.Romances, EnglishHistory and criticism.English literatureHistory and criticism.820.9/351Archibald Elizabeth1951-Putter AdUkCbUPUkCbUPBOOK996202475103316The Cambridge companion to the Arthurian legend2493186UNISAThis Record contains information from the Harvard Library Bibliographic Dataset, which is provided by the Harvard Library under its Bibliographic Dataset Use Terms and includes data made available by, among others the Library of Congress
