Sir Thomas Malory wrote "Le Morte d'Arthur" (also written as "Le Morte Darthur" and translated as "Death of Arthur") in the year 1470. This was a large work, comprising two volumes of about 500 pages each. In Chapter XI of Volume 2 of this book appears a list of the names of all the knights of the round table - all one hundred and ten of them. One of these knights was Sir Marrok, who is mentioned by saying, "Sir Marrok, the good knight that was betrayed with his wyf, for she made hym seven yere a wer-wolf". There is only a one other brief reference to Sir Marrok in this original work.In 1902, Allen French used this reference to compose an entire story about Sir Marrok. In this book he makes reference to "The Lay of Sir Marrok" and "The Chronicle of Sir Marrok" as works on which his story is based. While both the Lay and the Chronicle are also fictional works, French begins each of the chapters in his book with a four-line stanza from the Lay of Sir Marrok.In Chapter XIV of French's book there are two references to other tales which are referred to in the Lay, but these are only mentioned and not given. Because of this "gap" in the story, readers may have been left wondering for the past hundred-plus years what these tales were and why they were not included in the book. This revision includes those missing tales. Keine Bibliotheksbeschreibungen gefunden. |
