The English Romance in Time
Transforming Motifs from Geoffrey of Monmouth to the Death of Shakespeare
The great story motifs of romance - quests and magic, rudderless boats and passionate heroines, missing heirs and fairy mistresses - were transmitted directly through from the Middle Ages to the age of print in an abundance of editions. This work sets out to recover that lost cultural literacy of the Middle Ages and Renaissance.
