<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br>The legends of King Arthur and his knights of the Round Table have inspired some of the greatest works of literature--from Cervantes's <b>Don Quixote</b> to Tennyson's <b>Idylls of the King</b>. Although many versions exist, Malory's stands as the classic rendition. Malory wrote the book while in Newgate Prison during the last three years of his life; it was published some fourteen years later, in 1485, by William Caxton. The tales, steeped in the magic of Merlin, the powerful cords of the chivalric code, and the age-old dramas of love and death, resound across the centuries. <p/>The stories of King Arthur, Lancelot, Queen Guenever, and Tristram and Isolde seem astonishingly moving and modern. Malory's <b>Le Morte d'Arthur</b> endures and inspires because it embodies mankind's deepest yearnings for brotherhood and community, a love worth dying for, and valor, honor, and chivalry.<p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br>"<b>Le Morte d'Arthur</b> remains an enchanted sea for the reader to swim about in, delighting at the random beauties of fifteenth-century prose."<br>--Robert Graves<br><p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br>Elizabeth J. Bryan is associate professor of English at Brown University. She is the author of <b>Collaborative Meaning in Medieval Scribal Culture: The Otho LaZamon</b>.
