Thomas Malory

Le Morte D'arthur Thomas Malory Annotated edition

Sir Thomas Malory (c. 1405-1471) was an English writer, the author or compiler of Le Morte d'Arthur, a compilation of Romance tales about the legendary King Arthur, Guinevere, Lancelot, and the Knights of the Round Table. The book interprets existing French and English stories about these figures, with some of Malory's own original material (the Gareth story). Le Morte d'Arthur is perhaps the best-known work of English-language Arthurian literature. This one-volume, annotated version includes a detailed description of the authorship and text, an essay on chivalry, and an index.
