Description: Prose Merlin by John Conlee Estimated delivery 3-12 business days Format Paperback Condition Brand New Description Gives students of medieval Arthurian literature access to the Merlin section of the Old French Vulgate Cycle, an interconnected set of Arthurian works composed during the first half of the 13th century. Written in the latter half of the 15th century, it is a treasure trove of characters, incidents and motifs. Publisher Description This anonymously authored Middle English adaptation of the Old French Vulgate Cycle survives in one manuscript, Cambridge University Library MS Ff.3.11, and was written near the middle of the fifteenth century, making it the single earliest piece of prose Arthuriana in Middle English. A complete account of its titular characters life, the Prose Merlin follows the sorcerer from birth to final imprisonment by his former apprentice, Nimiane. Although composed not long before Malorys Arthurian epic Le Morte DArthur, the Prose Merlin provides a more focused and optimistic account of the Arthurian court, while also reveling in the supernatural themes of its subjects. This edition, accessible to the reader unfamiliar with Middle English prose, is the first complete edition of the romance published since the nineteenth century, making it a valuable resource for modern scholarship. Author Biography John Conlee is Professor of English at William and Mary. He specializes in Chaucer, Arthurian literature, and Middle English.
