They have inspired some of the most important works of European literature, particularly in the medieval period: the romances of Chre?tien 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. 410 0$aCambridge companions to literature. 606 $aArthurian romances$xHistory and criticism 606 $aRomances, English$xHistory and criticism 606 $aEnglish literature$yMiddle English, 1100-1500$xHistory and criticism 615 0$aArthurian romances$xHistory and criticism. 615 0$aRomances, English$xHistory and criticism. 615 0$aEnglish literature$xHistory and criticism. 676 $a820.9/351 702 $aArchibald$b Elizabeth$f1951- 702 $aPutter$b Ad 801 0$bUkCbUP 801 1$bUkCbUP 906 $aBOOK 912 $a996202475103316 996 $aThe Cambridge companion to the Arthurian legend$92493186 997 $aUNISA 999 $aThis 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
