This major reference work is the fourth volume in the series "Arthurian Literature in the Middle Ages". Its intention is to update the French and Occitan chapters in R.S. Loomis’ "Arthurian Literature in the Middle Ages: A Collaborative History" (Oxford, 1959) and to provide a volume which will serve the needs of students and scholars of Arthurian literature. The principal focus is the production, dissemination and evolution of Arthurian material in French and Occitan from the twelfth to the fifteenth century. Beginning with a substantial overview of Arthurian manuscripts, the volume covers writing in both verse (Wace, the Tristan legend, Chretien de Troyes and the Grail Continuations, Marie de France and the anonymous lays, the lesser known romances) and prose (the Vulgate Cycle, the prose Tristan, the Post-Vulgate Roman du Graal, etc.).

PREFACE Ad Putter

This book is the fourth volume in the series Arthurian Literature in the Middle Ages. The purpose of the series is to provide a comprehensive and reliable survey of Arthurian writings in all their cultural and generic variety. For some time, the single-volumeArthurian Literature in the Middle Ages: A Collaborative History edited by R. S. Loomis (Oxford, 1959) served the needs of students and scholars of Arthurian literature admirably, but it has now been overtaken by advances in scholarship and by changes in critical perspectives and methodologies. The Vinaver Trust recognized the need for a fresh and up-to-date survey, and that several volumes were required to do justice to the distinctive contributions made to Arthurian literature by the various cultures of medieval Europe. The basis for this volume and its predecessors in the series is cultural rather than national.The Arthur of the Frenchis primarily devoted to medieval Arthurian texts in French and Occitan, composed across a wide geographical area, though it also takes account of their historical, cultural and manuscript contexts, their afterlife in later periods, and of the formative influences by and on texts from extraneous cultures. The series is mainly aimed at undergraduate and postgraduate students and at scholars working in the fields covered by each of the volumes. They have, however, also been written to be accessible to students and scholars from different fields, who want or need to learn what forms Arthurian narratives took in languages and literatures that they may not know, and how those narratives influenced the cultures they do know. Within these parameters the editors have had control over the shape and content of their individual volumes. The mastermind behind this series was Ray Barron, who died without being able to see this latest instalment,The Arthur of the French, in its final form. This book is dedicated to his memory.
