A propos du livre

Présentation de l'éditeur

Arthurian Epic, a comparative study of one most interesting niche in the poetic literature of England. The former work was attacked by one critic, on the ground that I had failed to go outside of the lines which I had myself laid down as the limits of the inquiry; and I was accused of imperfect scholarship, because I did not drag into the study a discussion of m3h-lore, or take notice of foreign developments of the narrative, when the avowed limits of the work excluded any such digressions. My object in th Arthurian Epic was simply to compare four distinct versions of the A rthur-story, viz., the Cambrian, the Breton, the A nglo-N orman, and the Tennysonian, as they exist at the present day; and with any speculations as to Sun-myths, or the consideration of any foreign versions or other extraneous, though highly interesting matters, I had no concern, in that work.
