Morte Arthure, also known as The Death of Arthur, is a Middle English poem written by an anonymous author in the late 14th century. The poem tells the story of King Arthur's final battle against his nephew Mordred, which ultimately leads to the downfall of Arthur's kingdom of Camelot. This particular edition of the poem is edited by Robert Thornton, a 15th-century scribe who added his own unique touches to the text. The book includes a modern English translation of the poem alongside the original Middle English text, making it accessible to readers who may not be familiar with the language. In addition to the poem itself, the book also includes a detailed introduction that provides historical and cultural context for the story of King Arthur, as well as notes on the text and its various interpretations. Overall, Morte Arthure is a fascinating glimpse into the medieval world of chivalry, romance, and epic battles.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations. Because we believe this work is culturally important, we have made it available as part of our commitment for protecting, preserving, and promoting the world's literature in affordable, high quality, modern editions, that are true to their original work.
