The Arthurian Archives series of texts and editions in translation,
edited by Norris J. Lacy, makes a start on Italian Arthurian
material, with a 14c Tristan text. This is the first critical
edition with English translation of the prose compilation Tristano
panciatichiano, preserved in a unique manuscript in the Biblioteca
Nazionale of Florence (MS Panc. 33); it is the first time
theItalian text has been published in its entirety in any form.
Assembled by the mid-fourteenth century, the manuscript is an
original compilation in Italian based on several French models: the
Queste del San Graal, Josephd'Arimathie, the Mort Artu, and
notably, the Roman de Tristan en prose. While the edition itself
will be of great interest, the translation into English is a major
opportunity for Arthurians and other medievalists, and furnishes
important new evidence for the study of Arthurian material in
Italy. Apparatus includes a finding list of Arthurian manuscripts
produced, owned or read by Italians; a select bibliography; and an
index of proper names found in the narrative.
