Download or read book Malory s Book of Arms written by Andrew Lynch and published by Boydell & Brewer Ltd. This book was released on 1997 with total page 198 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This study of Sir Thomas Malory's Le Morte Darthur centres on its main narrative interest, armed combat. The description of knightly combat, with its complex thematic affinities, is seen as Malory's chief expressive medium. In the analysis of the discourse of fighting, some repeated descriptive preoccupations - to do with name, vision, blood, emotion and gesture - are treated as 'needs of meaning' with relevance for the whole text, and related to political, religious, genealogical, sexual and medical views of Malory's period. The critical discussion thus rests more on these elements of discourse rather than on the broader concepts such as 'chivalry' or 'love' normally applied to Malory.

Book excerpt: Selected as a CHOICE Outstanding Academic Title of 2014, the two-volume scholarly edition of the Morte Darthur examined the two surviving versions of the text: Caxton's edition of 1485 and the Winchester manuscript, known to have existed around 1480 but lost until 1934. All major modern scholarly editions have favoured one of these to the point of preserving corrigible error.

Download or read book Ethics in the Arthurian Legend written by Melissa Ridley Elmes and published by Boydell & Brewer. This book was released on 2023-07-11 with total page 421 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An interdisciplinary and trans-historical investigation of the representation of ethics in Arthurian Literature. From its earliest days, the Arthurian legend has been preoccupied with questions of good kingship, the behaviours of a ruling class, and their effects on communities, societies, and nations, both locally and in imperial and colonizing contexts. Ethical considerations inform and are informed by local anxieties tied to questions of power and identity, especially where leadership, service, and governance are concerned; they provide a framework for understanding how the texts operate as didactic and critical tools of these subjects. This book brings together chapters drawing on English, Welsh, German, Dutch, French, and Norse iterations of the Arthurian legend, and bridging premodern and modern temporalities, to investigate the representation of ethics in Arthurian literature across interdisciplinary and transhistorical lines. They engage a variety of methodologies, including gender, critical race theory, philology, literature and the law, translation theory, game studies, comparative, critical, and close reading, and modern editorial and authorial practices. Texts interrogated range from Culhwch and Olwen to Parzival, Roman van Walewein, Tristrams Saga, Sir Gawain and the Green Knight, and Malory's Morte Darthur. As a whole, the approaches and findings in this volume attest to the continued value and importance of the Arthurian legend and its scholarship as a vibrant field through which to locate and understand the many ways in which medieval literature continues to inform modern sensibilities and institutions, particularly where the matter of ethics is concerned.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A Jaded Contemporary Romance Novelist Finds Love in 14th Century Ireland in ETERNAL BELOVED, a Historical Time-Travel Romance by Mary Ellen Johnson --14th Century Ireland-- Bel Lucy might be the wildly successful owner of Bella Publishing, specializing in romances, steamy and sweet, but she doesn’t believe in love. Bel certainly doesn’t believe in love after a wrong turn in the haunted Castle by the Sea lands her in fourteenth-century Ireland where she is forced to endure the company of the musclebound—not to mention poorly groomed—knight, Alaric DeLaMer. In a time of famine and civil war, Alaric proves to be Bel’s protector while dismissing Bel as a prickly creature who delights in goading him with ridiculous tales. When a duplicitous alchemist sends Bel back to the 21st century, Bel discovers she can never be happy in any time or place—unless its beside Alec, the complete opposite of Bel’s imagined romance heroes. Realizing she was happier in the 14th century, Bel risks everything to battle her way back to Alec but will her eternal beloved be waiting in his Castle by the Sea? Publisher’s Note: Readers passionate about history will appreciate the author’s penchant for detail and accuracy. In keeping with the era, this story contains scenes of brutality which are true to the time and man’s timeless inhumanity. There are a limited number of sexual scenes with some vulgarity characteristic of the time. THE TRAVELS ACROSS TIME SERIES Before I Wake Eternal Beloved THE KNIGHTS OF ENGLAND, in series order The Lion and the Leopard A Knight There Was Within A Forest Dark A Child Upon The Throne Lords Among the Ruins The Flames of Rebellion MEET MARY ELLEN JOHNSON Her passion for Medieval England sparked Mary Ellen Johnson’s writing career. Her first medieval historical, The Lion and the Leopard, was followed by The Landlord’s Black-Eyed Daughter, a historical novel based on the Alfred Noyes poem, “The Highwayman.” (Published under the pseudonym, Mary Ellen Dennis.) Landlord was chosen as one of the top 100 historical romances of 2013. After taking a twenty-year detour in a quixotic quest to change the world—rather like Arthurian knights’ quests to find the holy grail, which ended in similar failure—Mary Ellen has happily returned to historical fiction writing and her favorite time period, the tumultuous fourteenth century. Her six-book series, Knights of England, follows the fortunes of the characters (and their progeny) introduced in The Lion and the Leopard through the Black Death, the reign of that most gloriously medieval of monarchs, Edward III, the 1381 Peasants’ Revolt, and ends with the deposition and murder of Richard II in 1399. There is nothing Mary Ellen loves more than bringing Medieval England alive for the reader. She particularly enjoys researching battles, campaigns, the daily lives of both lord and peasant, and trying to figure out our ancestors’ thought processes, particularly how they viewed their world. Oh, and did she mention the castles and cathedrals? Mary Ellen likes to say her favorite place in the world is standing before the tomb of the Black Prince in Canterbury Cathedral. (Hyperbole, of course, since Mary Ellen is not that well-traveled and her favorite places are probably wherever her kids and grandkids reside.)

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Vita mortuorum in memoria vivorum — volume 5 of the Beyond Language series is dedicated to the memory of Professor Jacek Fisiak, one of the titans in English historical linguistics in Poland and beyond. For over 40 years, he taught at Adam Mickiewicz University in Poznań, where he established a stronghold of English studies in Europe. His efforts were appreciated with medals, awards, honorific titles, and mentoring positions amongst academic bodies. “The present In Memoriam volume undoubtedly counts among the all-encompassing and much-expected individual and collective acts of commemoration to recognize the authority of Professor Jacek Fisiak—the great scientist, the indefatigable Organizer, Manager and Mentor, relentless of any adversity or difficulty; the person whose countless contributions and merits in the history of Polish humanities – especially in the field of philological sciences and English studies in Poland – cannot be overestimated. […] On the one hand, the articles included in the volume yield a multidimensional testimony of the authors' scientific kinship with Professor Fisiak's broad scientific interests. On the other, they present a whole range of individual philological inquiries, starting from texts whose synthetic theoretical overtones prove the rich experience of their authors, through the articles of a more general nature, to prolegomena stimulating further in-depth scientific analyses.
