| Publisher Description: This essay offers a new interpretation of Chretien's Conte del Graal that includes both an epilogue and a foreword in which the author defends his work. The author's approach is to offer a more consistent solution to understanding the Grail by assuming that neither the successors of Chretien nor the authors of other Grail works had knowledge of the Grail's original meaning. |
