About This Book

Kertomus seuraa Arthurinajan pienimuotoisia tapahtumia, joissa Lancelotin suhteet kahteen Elainen ja kuningatar Ginevraan johtavat Galahadin syntyyn ja moniin henkilökohtaisiin valintoihin. Teksti erottelee legendan inhimillisemmiksi episodeiksi: kuningas Pelleksen valinnoiksi, rakkauden ja uskollisuuden ristiriidoiksi sekä ritarillisten ihanteiden koettelemuksiksi. Kertomus jättää suuret mytologiset aiheet syrjään ja esittelee alkuvaiheet ja vaatimattomat koettelemukset, joista ritaritaruston myöhemmät kertomukset kehittyvät.
