Sinopse
Características

An indepth work on the origins of the Merlin of Arthurian legend, this book examines early texts, thirteenth century romances focusing particularly on Merlin as a character, rather than those where Merlin is a background cast member. The outline here starts with looking at the genre and the place of fantasy, moving on to consider the attitudes towards magic and magic-users in medieval times. Main works considered are Geoffrey of Monmouths Historia Regum Britanniae and Vita Merlini; the Vulgate cycle, Suite du Merlin; and finally Malorys work. The author asserts that each portrays a different approach to Merlin but all are tied to history and to the Christian religion.
