All essays are written by experts and reflect the erudite and
sophisticated engagement these scholars have with Malory's text-its
historical, cultural, and political contexts and especially recent
theoretical concepts. This volume is required reading for those who
wish to go beyond literary formalism. Among the standout and
exceedingly current essays are those on gender, emotion, and
secular and spiritual concerns in the text. Highly Recommended.
*CHOICE*
I will not hesitate to recommend the New Companion to undergraduate
and graduate students. Taken together, the essays provide engaging
and accessible investigations of important topics, issues, and
questions relating to the Morte Darthur, and demonstrate a range of
ways of reading and approaching the text.
*THE RICARDIAN*
An invaluable resource, which will doubtless, in turn, lead to
further fruitful labour in that fair field.
