One of the best-known Arthurian stories--adapted many times into verse, prose, games, and film--this unabridged republication of the 1909 edition is beautifully bound and finished with a decorated hardcover.

This interpretation by a distinguished scholar of one of English medieval literature's gems translates Middle English poetry into modern prose for a retelling that both preserves the spirit of the original and makes it accessible to modern readers.

Examines the saga of the Grail. Exploring the legend's Gnostic roots, this book considers how the legend of the Grail related to fertility rites with the lance and the cup serving as sexual symbols. It traces its origins to a Gnostic text that served as a link between ancient vegetation cults and the Celts and Christians who embellished the story.
