Le Morte D'Arthur

About this book

The full, ancient text: Le Morte d'Arthur. Le Morte d'Arthur (or The Death of Arthur) is perhaps the most definitive Arthurian text of all time. Its author, Sir Thomas Malory, published the book in 1485, and it has remained the primary basis for all of the myths ever since.Thomas Malory's intention with this book was to assemble and rework all of the existing tales about Arthur, Guinevere, Lancelot, Merlin, and more into one single comprehensive text. Based on the lasting impact of the book, we can probably say he succeeded.
