Enter the extraordinary world of Arthurian legend in an adventure
overflowing with knightly chivalry, the danger of jousting and the
warmth of true love. But the Legend of Parzival is more than the
tale of one knight's epic journey to find the elusive Holy Grail;
along the way Parzival faces a challenging journey of
self-discovery. He must conquer his ignorance and pride, and learn
humility and compassion before he is finally worthy of becoming a
Grail Knight. This accessible prose retelling of the medieval
German epic brings the wonderful story of the Arthurian knight
(known variously as Parzival, Parsifal and Percival) to life for
today's readers, while faithfully preserving the story, characters
and tone of Wolfram von Eschenbach's thirteenth century narrative
poem. In Steiner-Waldorf education, Parzival's quest is seen as a
metaphor for the difficult journey through life, which speaks
strongly to the adolescent, and its study is at the heart of the
Class 11 curriculum. As a hugely experienced Steiner-Waldorf
teacher, Robin Cook's engaging retelling will provide valuable
inspiration for other teachers and students, as well as enjoyment
and enrichment for all readers.
