Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Sir Gawain and the Green Knight: Rendered Literally Into Modern English, From the Alliterative Romance-Poem of A. D. 1360, From Cotton Ms. Nero Ax in British Museum, With an Introduction on the Arthur and Gawain Sagas in Early English Literature The whole cycle of the Arthur Legends is an illustration of this. Those of us who have lived in Camelot and walked its streets, peeping shyly into the bower of Queen Guinevere, and have mingled with the crowds at the great Feast of Pentecost, when knights and kings rode forth into the green meadows decked with gorgeous pavilions, and have seen the doughty deeds of many a gallant knight, will find small comfort in the knowledge that Camelot, and the palace of Arthur, and the bower of Guinevere, and the joustings are but the ´baseless fabric of a dream.´ The Arthur Legends are an eternal credit to humanity. For man is ever in revolt against sordid actuality. He is ever seeking the land of his hearts desire. There is probably no other saga that has so universally captured the heart and imagination of the world as the Arthur saga. Arthur, though a Briton, belongs to universal history.
