    Vandenhoeck & Ruprecht 2011; US$ 64.69

    Hauptbeschreibung Thanks to the recent »return to religion«, the holy has become a relevant issue in public debate, as is suggested by concepts such as »re-sacralization« and »re-enchantment«.

  • Erzählstrukturen der Artusliteraturby Peter Ihring; Friedrich Wolfzettel

    De Gruyter 1999; US$ 126.00

    The apparently vague and certainly hackneyed term 'structure' has become a terminally ubiquitous 'hardly perennial' in the research on Arthurian romance in verse and prose. Unlike orally derived epic poetry, early Arthurian romance already evolved an identity as an individually under-written, authorial, consciously fictional, and - in tendency at least... more...

    De Gruyter 2003; US$ 133.00

    Miraculous phenomena as an integral feature of Arthurian literature have always been a central focus of research, notably in approaches centering on the history of motifs and sources, and those with a structural bent. But with the new concern for issues posed by the history of mentality, problems of acculturation and functionalization have moved to... more...

    Boydell & Brewer Group Ltd 2013; US$ 14.57

    The Grail legends have been appropriated by novelists as diverse as Umberto Eco and Dan Brown yet very few have read for themselves the original stories from which they came. All the mystery and drama of the Arthurian world are embodied in the extraordinary tales of Perceval, Gawain, Lancelot and Galahad in pursuit of the Holy Grail. The original... more...

  • The Arthur of the Northby Marianne E. Kalinke

    University of Wales Press 2011; US$ 85.00

    The book introduces the reader to the stories about King Arthur and his knights and the lovers Tristan and Isolt that flourished in the Scandinavian countries—in Denmark, Iceland, Norway, and Sweden—in the Middle Ages and in early modern times.

  • The Grail Chroniclesby E C Coleman

    The History Press 2011; US$ 14.57

    This is the story of a plain silver chalice from the first century AD that now rests in the heart of England. From its momentous beginnings as the cup used by Christ at the Last Supper, and as the vessel used to catch His blood at the Crucifixion, to its unrecognised discovery in the late nineteenth century, the chalice has passed through the hands... more...
