The present volume grew from a nucleus of four papers given at the Twelfth International Arthurian Conference at Regensburg in 1971 on the alliterative "Morte Arthure", increasingly recognised as one of the great masterpieces of medieval English literature. These lectures sought to reappraise the poem and its somewhat enigmatic historical and cultural context, and are presented here in a much revised and expanded form. Unlike most volumes of this kind, the contributions form an integrated whole, the result of lengthy discussions among the collaborating scholars over the past year. The topics range from the poem's place among chronicles and Arthurian romances to the date, audience and attitude to contempary problems, notably that of war. Specific fields such as heraldry and laments for the dead are examined in detail, while the linguistic structure of the poem is the subject of two essays. This is only the second volume-length study of the alliterative "Morte Arthure", to appear, and as such it will be widely welcomed.
