Fiction. Folk Tales. Medieval Studies. Dorsey Armstrong provides a
new, Modern English translation of the MORTE DARTHUR that portrays
the holistic and comprehensive unity of the text as a whole, as
suggested by the structure of Caxton's print, but that is based
primarily on the Winchester Manuscript, which offers the most
complete and accurate version of Malory's narrative. This
translation makes one of the most compelling and important texts in
the Arthurian tradition easily accessible to everyone--from high
school students to Arthurian scholars. In addition to the complete
text, Armstrong includes an introduction that discusses Malory's
sources and the long-running debate surrounding the manuscript and
print versions of the narrative. For ease of use, the text is keyed
to both William Caxton's print version and the manuscript version
edited by Eugene Vinaver. A detailed index is also included.
