King Arthur's death alliterative Morte Arthure and… av Robert of Thornton
Not so interesting as Mallory, but useful as a precursor of the great Morte. It seems to cover the standard bases later used by Malory, as regards the end of the Round Table.
This edition brings together the alliterative Morte Arthure (c 1400) and the stanzaic Le Morte Arthur (c. 1350) in modern translation, together with useful introductions to each. These were both prime sources for Malory's prose version nearly a century later. I found the stanzaic version particularly enjoyable, but both are fine translations.
Cyflwyniad i agweddau ar straeon Arthur a'r traddodiadau celtaidd hynafol sydd i'w weld yn rhannol ac yn bytiog mewn chwedlau fel Breuddwyd Rhonabwy a Culhwch ac Olwen.

CitizenMarc | 3 andra recensioner | Sep 14, 2009 | The TEAMS books are wonderfully done, and this is no exception. I am in love with the alliterative morte poem, even though it is incredibly difficult to wade through. The amount of detail is almost excruciating even though it is also fascinating. An excellent edition.
