Book excerpt: Excerpt from Epics and Romances of the Middle Ages Egend is' not history; but in legend we find embodied historical truths, manners and customs of past ages, beliefs and superstitions otherwise long forgotten. Of which history itself takes no account. Legend has preserved for us, maybe in romantic dress, maybe' under altered names and circumstances, stirringgpictures of heroes and heroines, who once have lived and suffered, fought and conquered, or have faced death with' trustful courage; pictures, too, of men of equal prowess, as strong in evil as in might, who, victorious for a time, have yet ever met a stronger power than theirs, stronger in virtue, stronger in might.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Popular Romances of the Middle Ages The proposition that King Arthur either is or is not an historical personage will be disputed by none. Happily the answer to this question, whether it be given in the affirmative 'or the negative, has really nothing to do with the origin of the world-renowned story as told by Jeffrey of Monmouth, or by Sir Thomas Malory. Whatever may have been the deeds of the real Arthur, if Arthur ever really lived, they exhibit scarcely a single feature in common with the fortunes and exploits of the lord of the Round Table, and the illustrious knights who went in search of the Holy Grail.

Download or read book Medieval Arthurian Epic and Romance written by William W. Kibler and published by McFarland. This book was released on 2014-08-21 with total page 301 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume offers newly translated texts that exemplify the two most important traditions of Arthurian literature in the Middle Ages. Encompassing such key works such as Lawman's Brut and Wace's Romance of Brut, written in Middle English and Old French, respectively, the Arthurian Epic Tradition depends on Geoffrey of Monmouth's History of the Kings of Britain, written in Latin. Many modern readers are more familiar with Arthur and his fabled court as the centerpiece of a massive fictional tradition, well represented in the second part of this volume, including Chretien de Troyes's Story of the Grail, The Quest of the Holy Grail, and the Perlesvaus. These selections emphasize the connection between secular and religious understandings of chivalry that is the most distinctive quality of medieval Arthurian romance. Useful as a classroom text, the volume provides material for a semester's worth of study. Instructors considering this book for use in a course may request an examination copy here.

Download or read book EPICS AND ROMANCES OF THE MIDDLE AGES 23 Epic Medival Romances and Myths written by Wilhelm Wagner and published by Abela Publishing Ltd. This book was released on 2020-03-09 with total page 458 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Herein is a collection of, at least, 23 illustrated, epic romances and legends from the middle ages. This volume contains the ever popular the Nibelung Hero as well as the tales of Beowulf, Roland the Paladin and Tristram and Isolde amongst the many recounted. The majority of these myths and legends have Northern European, British, Norse and Germanic origins, with the others sourced from the other regions of Europe. All are rich with cultural imagery and have captivating narratives. The virtues of knightly valour, so common to folklore and legends, are present in many of the stories, wrapped around and intertwined with the customs of royal courts, as we have come to know them. Fair maidens, and the practices of chivalry and courtship in their medieval form are a recurring theme. Enemies and nemeses, whether human or mythical beast are presented as vicious and foreboding, but, as always, a knight in shining armour on a white stallion sallies forth to save the damsel in distress and the day – well most times, at least. Originally published in 1884, this collection of stories was compiled by scholar of Medieval literature Wilhelm Wägner. The widely ranging stories within were chosen for their vivid imagery and emotive punch. ================ KEYWORDS/TAGS: Epic romances, tales, legends, middle ages, myths, sagas, wilhelm wagner, love, lust, knights in shining armour, Amelung, Kindred Legends, Langobardian, Alboin, Rosamund, King Rother, Ortnit, Hugdieterich, Wolfdieterich, King Samson, Dietwart, Dietrich Of Bern, Hildebrand, Comrades, action, Adventure, Faithful Ally, Ermenrich, Harlungs, King Etzel, Walter, Wasgenstein, Hildegunde, Reussen, Battle Of Ravenna, Going Home, Nibelung Hero, Siegfried, Youth, Burgundy, Dragonstone, dragon, Wooing, Brunhild, Treason, Death, Woe, Hunland, Lament, Hegeling Legend, Hagen, Hettel, Gudrun, Queen Gerlind, Victory, Beowulf, Grendel, Bold Diver, She-Wolf, Sea, Fight With The Dragon, Carolingian Legends, Children Of Haymon, Roland, Bugle, horn, William Of Orange, Legends Of King Arthur, Holy Grail, Titurel, Percival, Lohengrin, Tristram, Isolde, Tannhäuser
