White's \u003cem\u003eThe Once and Future King\u003c\/em\u003e, and the Lerner and Loewe musical \u003cem\u003eCamelot\u003c\/em\u003e. It might also be argued that the late twentieth- and early twenty-first-century tradition of fantasy literature-from Tolkien's \u003cem\u003eLord of the Rings\u003c\/em\u003e to George Lucas's \u003cem\u003eStar Wars\u003c\/em\u003e and beyond-owes much to the Arthurian tradition, rooted in English most strongly in Malory's \u003cem\u003eMorte Darthur\u003c\/em\u003e. Yet there has been no edition that draws on the results of the past generation's scholarship while presenting Malory's work in a form that is at once true to the original and accessible to the modern reader.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis new edition, which expands on the revised and expanded selection of Malory material that will be included in the third edition of \u003cem\u003eThe Broadview Anthology of British Literature\u003c\/em\u003e, is all of those things. The extensive selections include most of the material concerning Launcelot, and all of the \u003cem\u003eMorte\u003c\/em\u003e's two final tales; the language has been partially modernized to make the text accessible to the modern reader, while retaining the flavor of the original; the text has been carefully prepared from the Winchester manuscript; and the annotations are extensive.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/sureshotbooks-com.myshopify.com\/search?type=product%2Carticle%2Cpage\u0026amp;q=AUTH-10348806\"\u003eSir Thomas Malory\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Broadview Press Inc\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 10\/06\/2014\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 360\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.75lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.40h x 5.50w x 0.60d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781554811595\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1554811597\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBISAC Categories:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e- \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/sureshotbooks-com.myshopify.com\/search?type=product%2Carticle%2Cpage\u0026amp;q=CAT-FIC\"\u003eFiction\u003c\/a\u003e | \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/sureshotbooks-com.myshopify.com\/search?type=product%2Carticle%2Cpage\u0026amp;q=BISAC-FIC008000\"\u003eSagas\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cbr\u003e- \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/sureshotbooks-com.myshopify.com\/search?type=product%2Carticle%2Cpage\u0026amp;q=CAT-FIC\"\u003eFiction\u003c\/a\u003e | \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/sureshotbooks-com.myshopify.com\/search?type=product%2Carticle%2Cpage\u0026amp;q=BISAC-FIC019000\"\u003eLiterary\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eAbout the Author\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e Contributing Editor \u003cstrong\u003eMaureen Okun\u003c\/strong\u003e is a professor in the Department of English and Chair of the Department of Liberal Studies at Vancouver Island University.
