Roger Simpson('s) finds are crisp, detailed, and convincing.'
MODERN LANGUAGE REVIEW The revival of interest in Arthurian
literature in the early part of the 19th century has been largely
unremarked until now. Roger Simpson's wide-ranging study of this
period, in which he traces the dominant forms adopted by the
Arthurian revival and presents a wealth of new material, shows it
to have been of critical importance in the development of the
legend and to have been a powerful early influence on Tennyson,
whose role within the Arthurian revival is accordingly reassessed.
His book also contains a complete bibliography of early
19th-century Arthurian poetry, drama and prose fiction, together
with catalogues of paintings and illustrated books. ROGER SIMPSON
is Director, Centre for Overseas Student Programmes, at the
University of East Anglia
