King Arthur is arguably the most recognizable literary hero of the
European Middle Ages. His stories survive in many genres and many
languages, but while scholars and enthusiasts alike know something
of his roots in Geoffrey of Monmouth's Latin History of the Kings
of Britain, most are unaware that there was a Latin Arthurian
tradition which extended beyond Geoffrey. This collection of essays
will highlight different aspects of that tradition, allowing
readers to see the well-known and the obscure as part of a larger,
often coherent whole. These Latin-literate scholars were as
interested as their vernacular counterparts in the origins and
stories of Britain's greatest heroes, and they made their own
significant contributions to his myth.
