The Arthurian legend continues to appeal strongly to the interests of scholars and the imaginations of general readers alike, and books and articles on the subject appear with impressive regularity. Despite that unflagging interest, however, many of the medieval texts from which the legend sprang are unavailable or of difficult access. The series `Arthurian Archives’, under the editorship of Norris Lacy, will address these problems with a set of edited texts and facing translations of medieval French, German, Dutch, Italian and Scandinavian Arthurian compositions. Many are edited and translated here for the first time; others are previously published texts, now out of print. The aim is to offer complete and authoritative editions accompanied by facing English translations that can be used either independently of the original or as a reliable guide to it.
