La Mort d'Arthure. The history of King Arthur and of the knights of the round table

1866 King Arthur Lancelot Knights of Round Table Morte Darthur 1634 Stansby 3v

In 1485, "Le Morte Darther" or, "The Death of Arthur" was first published – the first time the traditional tales of King Arthur, Guinevere, Lancelot, Merlin, and the Knights of the Round Table finally was available to be read, instead of just told as a mythical story. It is, without equal, the best-known work of Arthurian literature and is a principal source for many plays, operas, and modern stories.

This fine 19th-century, three volume edition was collected and edited by Thomas Wright who included a reproduction of the 1634 Stansby title page.
