Le Morte d'Arthur

27 Jul 2025

Description

Send us a textLe Morte d'Arthur, written by Sir Thomas Malory in the late 15th century, is a seminal work of English literature that compiles and reimagines the Arthurian legends, drawing heavily from earlier French and English sources. Completed around 1470 and first printed by William Caxton in 1485, the book chronicles the rise and fall of King Arthur and his Knights of the Round Table, weaving tales of chivalry, romance, and betrayal. Through its 21 books, Malory explores Arthur’s reign, the quest for the Holy Grail, the love affair between Lancelot and Guinevere, and the ultimate destruction of Camelot due to internal strife and treachery. Written during a time of political instability in England, the text reflects themes of honor, loyalty, and the fragility of idealized societies, cementing its status as a cornerstone of medieval romance and Arthurian mythology.#audiobook #summary #LeMorteDeArthur #malory #classicliterature #kingarthur #kingarthurknightstaleHi fans!
