Book The Cambridge Companion to the Arthurian Legend

Download or read book The Cambridge Companion to the Arthurian Legend written by Elizabeth Archibald and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2009-09-10 with total page 287 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For more than a thousand years, the adventures of King Arthur and his Knights of the Round Table have been retold across Europe. 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.

Book A Laodicean

    Book Details:
  • Author : Thomas Hardy
  • Publisher : Penguin UK
  • Release : 2005-11-24
  • ISBN : 0141922044
  • Pages : 585 pages

Download or read book A Laodicean written by Thomas Hardy and published by Penguin UK. This book was released on 2005-11-24 with total page 585 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The daughter of a wealthy railway magnate, Paula Power inherits De Stancy Castle, an ancient castle in need of modernization. She commissions George Somerset, a young architect, to undertake the work. Somerset falls in love with Paula but she, the Laodicean of the title, is torn between his admiration and that of Captain De Stancy, whose old-world romanticism contrasts with Somerset's forward-looking attitude. Paula's vacillation, however, is not only romantic. Her ambiguity regarding religion, politics and social progress is a reflection of the author's own. This new Penguin Classics edition of Hardy's text contains an introduction and notes that illuminate and clarify these themes, and draws parallels between the text and the author's life and views.
