"The Arthurian Legend in the Literatures of the Spanish Peninsula" is an exhaustive scholarly examination of the arrival and evolution of the Matter of Britain within the Iberian Peninsula. This work investigates how the iconic figures of King Arthur, Merlin, and the Knights of the Round Table were integrated into the medieval and Renaissance literary traditions of Spain and Portugal. By tracing the transmission of these legends from French and Latin sources into the Romance languages, the study provides a detailed account of how the motifs of chivalry and courtly love were adapted to suit local cultural sensibilities.
The text focuses on the analysis of specific manuscripts, chronicles, and epic poems that demonstrate the profound influence of Arthurian themes on Iberian authors. It explores the unique variations found in Spanish and Portuguese versions of the legends, highlighting the creative departures from their Northern European origins. This volume serves as a vital resource for understanding the interconnectedness of European literature during the Middle Ages and the specific ways in which legendary cycles contributed to the development of national literatures. It is a foundational study for researchers in medieval studies, Hispanic literature, and the broader field of Arthurian scholarship.
