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
Chretien 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.
