"Ronan Coghlan is to be congratulated on producing a book which should be on the shelves of everyone who shares his love of the Arthurian myths and legends From the foreword by John Marchews<br/>There has always been a deep and abiding fascination with the Arthurian tales for they are both a rich part of our Celtic heritage and also provide profound archetypes that can be successfully worked upon at a psychological level. For, as the mythographer Pamela Travers has remarked, "the myths never have a single meaning: they have something greater meaning itself."<br/>The Encyclopaedia of Arthurian Legends is the most comprehensive book available on the Arthurian tales. Ronan Coghlan, an acknow ledged authority on the Celtic tradition, has drawn together all the different strands of Arthurian myth from such various sources as Geoffrey of Monmouth, Malory, Chrétien de Troyes, the Mobinogion and the English Gawain Cycles. He examines every character appearing in the myths and explains the history and stories associated with them, and their overall importance within the cycle of legends.<br/>The Encyclopedia of Arthurian Legends, illustrated by Courtney Davis, is both a fascinating read and the ideal introduction for those who want to find out about the Arthurian traditions, as well as an indispensable reference book for enthusiasts." -- back cover. |
