The book has an exceptional line-up of contributors, and provides comprehensive coverage of French Arthurian literature. The editors and contributors write as acknowledged experts, so that the book will be authoritative.A" Dr Ad Putter, Department of English, University of Bristol. A welcome particularity of this volume is its number of co-authored chapters, each collaborator being invariably a world authority on her/his particular segment of the work. I predict for this pivotal volume in an already distinguished series a 'shelf life' as long as or even longer than that of Roger Sherman Loomis's Arthurian Literature in the Middle Ages (1959), often invoked by previous generations as a 'bible' but which, unlike the present, splendidly judicious volume, had sometimes to be read with a certain degree of care.A" Neil Thomas, Durham University, 'Reading Medieval Reviews', Graduate Centre for Medieval Studies
