The book presents a commentary on Le Morte d'Arthur that illuminates Malory's literary aims and techniques. The author brings to bear several hitherto unused source materials on Malory's work and offers new analyses of his authorial purposes. Lumiansky argues that Malory wrote a single unified book rather than eight separate tales. The source of Malory's story is an Old French romance known as the Suite du Merlin. Lumiansky traces Malory's originality through Malory's treatment of the main generic features of the Suite du Merlin.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTable of Contents\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003eForeword\u003cbr\u003eIntroduction \u003cbr\u003eChapter 1. \"The Tale of King Arthur\": Beginnings and Foreshadowings\u003cbr\u003eChapter 2. \"The Tale of King Arthur and the Emperor Lucius\": The Rise of Lancelot\u003cbr\u003eChapter 3. \"The Tale of Lacncelot\": Prelude to Adultery\u003cbr\u003eChapter 4. \"The Tale of Gareth\": The Chivalric Flowering\u003cbr\u003eChapter 5. \"The Tale of Tristram\": Development by Analogy\u003cbr\u003eChapter 6. \"The Tale of the Sankgreall\": Human Frailty \u003cbr\u003eChapter 7. \"The Tale of Lancelot and Guenever\": Suspense\u003cbr\u003eChapter 8. \"The Tale of the Death of Arthur\": Catastrophe and Resolution\u003cbr\u003eIndex\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Johns Hopkins University Press","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49408132907351,"sku":"9781421433103","price":35.1,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0817\/1739\/5799\/files\/9781421433103.jpg?v=1730501705","url":"https:\/\/bookcurl.com\/products\/malorys-originality-9781421433103","provider":"Book Curl","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
