William W. Kibler is one of the most productive and versatile medievalists of his generation. Some scholars and students think of him primarily as a specialist in the medieval epic, whereas others consider him to be an Arthurian scholar. He is of course both, but he is also much more: a consummate philologist and editor of texts and also a prolific and accomplished translator. Above all, those who know him best know him as an extraordinarily generous and modest man. The present volume represents an effort by thirty medievalists, specialists in fields as diverse as William Kibler’s interests, to indicate our respect for him, aptly described in the foreword as “scholar, teacher, friend.”
Monica L. Wright is the Joseph P. Montiel Associate Professor of French at the University of Louisiana at Lafayette. Norris J. Lacy is the Edwin Erle Sparks Professor Emeritus of French and Medieval Studies at the Pennsylvania State University. Rupert T. Pickens is Professor Emeritus of French at the University of Kentucky.
