Annotated bibliography of the Arthurian legend in modern
English-language fiction, not only in literary texts, but in
television, music, and art. The legend of Arthur has been a source
of fascination for writers and artists in English since the
fifteenth century, when Thomas Malory drew together for the first
time in English a variety of Arthurian stories from a number of
sources to form the Morte Darthur. It increased in popularity
during the Victorian era, when after Tennyson's treatment of the
legend, not only authors and dramatists, but painters, musicians,
and film-makers found a sourceof inspiration in the Arthurian
material. This interdisciplinary, annotated bibliography lists the
Arthurian legend in modern English-language fiction, from 1500 to
2000, including literary texts, film, television, music, visual
art, and games. It will prove an invaluable source of reference for
students of literary and visual arts, general readers, collectors,
librarians, and cultural historians--indeed, by anyone interested
in the history of the waysin which Camelot has figured in
post-medieval English-speaking cultures. ANN F. HOWEY is Assistant
