The Arthurian legend closes with a promise: On a distant day, when
his country calls, the king will return. His lost realm will be
regained, and his shattered dream of an ideal world will, at last,
be realized. This collection of original essays explores the issue
of return in the modern Arthurian legend. With an Introduction by
noted scholar Raymond H. Thompson and 13 essays by authors from the
fields of literature, art history, film history, and folklore, this
collection reveals the flexibility of the legend. Just as the
modern legend takes the form current to its generation, the myth of
return generates a new legend with each telling. As these authors
show, return can come in the form of a noble king or a Caribbean
immigrant, with the mystery of an art theft or a dying boy's dream.
