Abstract:

Arthuriana has a long history of adaptation and appropriation in medieval and contemporary works, and the tradition of such textual borrowing and reworking continues in contemporary “genre” novels, particularly those that invoke associations with knights, honor, and codes of chivalry. One such example are the novels and short stories of the Dragonlance setting. Sturm Brightblade is positioned as a knight who adheres to a code of honor and is given Arthurian character traits, narrative arcs, and a backstory by the various authors that have fleshed out his history. The texts in the Dragonlance s

Abstract:

The present article analyses intertextual references in David Lodge’s Small World. An Academic Romance (1984), focusing on allusions to the corpus of medieval and twentieth-century Arthuriana in the representation of women characters. An analysis of Arthurian allusions in the portrayal of women characters shows that Lodge introduces Arthurian women to his academic ‘Camelot’ in response to medieval and post-medieval literature about King Arthur and the Grail quest. In this respect, his representation of academic women in Small World is different from the way they are described in Lodge’s other

Abstract:

Abstract Pelleas and Ettarde may not be particularly well-known figures today, but in the nineteenth and twentieth centuries, following the publication of Alfred Lord Tennyson’s ‘Pelleas and Ettarre’ idyll, they were included or even centred in a number of Arthurian poems, plays and novels. This article explores the changing representations of Pelleas and Ettarde in post-medieval adaptations. Why do writers choose to retell and adapt this story? What kinds of intertextual connections are uncovered by focusing on these particular Arthurian afterlives? And how do modern writers reshape this stor

Abstract:

This article focuses on the presence and the treatment of sound in the killing of the adversary in the Arthurian novel. We begin by establishing a definition of the topos, based on a large list of occurrences, which leads us to see in the sound of the death of the enemy a variation of a larger and more widespread motif. We then study the evolution of this topos from the epic texts to the latest novels. Finally, we notice the significance of these sounds in a family of romances in which authors seem to seek to perpetuate the first forms of the Arthurian story.

Abstract:

Abstract The novels of Kazuo Ishiguro span a variety of literary genres but are unified by a profound interest in the workings of memory. Guided by recent scholarship in the field of cultural memory studies, this essay analyses Ishiguro’s seventh novel, The Buried Giant, in the context of the Middle English romance traditions which it echoes both formally and thematically. In doing so, it argues that the novel’s use of Arthurian myth is a technique by which to illuminate and explore the role of literature in the formation of collective memory and cultural identity.

Abstract:

One of the hallmarks of young adult literature is its focus on adolescent protagonists who struggle to reconcile what they want with what they are supposed to want. Indeed, some of the most enduring works of young adult literature, from L. M. Montgomery’s Anne of Green Gables (2006) to Judy Blume’s Forever (1975), place their young characters at a crossroads between cultural convention and individual desire. Foundational scholarship in the field of young adult fiction has suggested a recurring conflict in novels for young readers in which a protagonist finds himself or herself directly at odds

Abstract:

The article discusses Small World, one of the most popular campus novels by the contemporary author David Lodge. What distinguishes Small World is the theme of academia: nearly all major characters are lecturers in literature. Lodge involves the reader in an intertextual game whose meanings are available only to experts, i.e. lecturers themselves, since most readers may overlook the fact that the novel is a satirical remake of Arthurian romance. The “critical point” mentioned in the title of the article alludes to critical debates in the novel, to a critique of the academic institution as such

Abstract:

This paper aims to analyse and interpret the motif of the long-awaited knight (le chevalier desirré) in two Old French romances of the Round Table: Lancelot by Chretien de Troyes (ca. 1177–1181) and The Quest of the Holy Grail, written in prose by an anonymous author in the first half of the 13th century. Essentially different in their purport and in the portrayal of the Arthurian society, these works display an interesting array of the variants of the motif under scrutiny. In Chretien’s romance the motif of the long-awaited knight gives rise primarily to the effect of surprise and astonishmen

Abstract:

If The Buried Giant had been intended as a historiographic metafiction, its setting could have been replaced with recent locations having witnessed great wars, but then Kazuo Ishiguro would have unwillingly written a reportage-like novel instead of a historical fantasy dealing with magical ways of forgetting past atrocities in order to secure a peaceful future. While in his previous novels Ishiguro introduces only mental monsters, in The Buried Giant the characters are sent searching for their forgotten past in a post-Arthurian England with ogres that carry off children, pixies that render peo

Since the late 1920s and his first novel, Cup of Gold (1929), there has been little consensus about John Steinbeck's work, and he has often been praised or dismissed for the wrong reasons. In the wake of the novels with the sweeping reach and social consciousness of In Dubious Battle (1936), Of Mice and Men (1937), and The Grapes of Wrath (1939), and despite the prodigious and startlingly diverse output of his career, Steinbeck was generally regarded as one of America's foremost engaged artists.

The term “Arthurian Literature” describes writings in poetry, prose, dramas, and novels that are based on the mythical King Arthur, who is said to have ruled Britain in the fifth century BC. Experts have been debating and disputing King Arthur’s historical foundation for a long time. Despite the never-ending controversy surrounding the history of King Arthur and his knights, numerous authors have continued to express their love and devotion for him in their works.

Abstract:

This paper proposes an analysis of various misogynistic anecdotes that are inserted within the idealized framework of the Arthurian romance, generally considered as an exaltation of courtly love. The study starts with a reflection on this ideal of courtly love and an analysis of some of the misogynistic examples taken from various examples of the Arthurian cycle. It essentially deals with the episodes of the «magic horn» and the «badly cut coat», which appear in independent stories and also in several Arthurian romances.

Abstract:

Merlin’s symbolic enrichment achieves such a significance throughout the Arthurian cycle and its medieval stage as to encourage several intertextual transpositions in subsequent narrative structures, reaching our present days, full of literary richness and consequence. A meaningful example arises in Álvaro Cunqueiro’s novel Merlín e familia (1955), the subject of study of this article. Cunqueiro develops the story from the desire to scape reality and seek refuge in the myths and legends of yesteryear. Cunqueiro interconnects these legendary elements through rewriting them into the creation of

The current paper proposes an interdisciplinary perspective on Kazuo Ishiguro’s novels with regard to his characters’ choices, decisions and actions. By presenting identity crises as a result of faulty choices and decisions, Ishiguro stresses the importance of heuristics, biases and conditioning in the decision-making process. Like real people, Ishigurian characters are emotional, irrational and prone to error, behaving contrary to the maximis
