Book Synopsis The Book of the Knight Zifar by : Charles L. Nelson
Download or read book The Book of the Knight Zifar written by Charles L. Nelson and published by University Press of Kentucky. This book was released on 2021-12-14 with total page 509 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Book of the Knight Zifar (or Cifar), Spain's first novel of chivalry, is the tale of a virtuous but unfortunate knight who has fallen from grace and must seek redemption through suffering and good deeds. Because of a curse that repeatedly deprives him of that most important of knightly accoutrements—his horse—Zifar and his family must flee their native India and wander through distant lands seeking to regain their rank and fortune. A series of mishaps divides the family, and the novel follows their separate adventures—alternatively heroic, comic, and miraculous—until at length they are reunited and their honor restored. The anonymous author of Zifar based his early fourteenth-century novel on the medieval story of the life of St. Eustacius, but onto this trunk he grafted a surprising variety of narrative types: Oriental tales of romance and magic, biblical stories, moralizing fables popular since the Middle Ages, including several from Aesop, and instructions in the rules of proper knightly conduct. Humor in the form of puns, jokes, and old proverbs also runs through the novel. In particular, the foolish/wise Knave offers a comic contrast to the heroic Knight, whom he must continually rescue through the application of common sense. Zifar was to have an important influence on later Spanish literature, and perhaps on Cervantes' great tale of a knight and his squire, Don Quixote. All those with an interest in Spanish literature and medieval life will be grateful for Mr. Nelson's excellent translation, which brings to life this extraordinary early novel.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: There's danger by day and wild conquest by night when Scottish and English nobles clash in this medieval romance bundle. Don't miss a moment as these knights in shining armor launch valiant quests and discover love where they least expect it. Knight Errant: Lady Juliana Verault joined the religious Beguine community to seek safe haven, but when she's entrusted with a letter from the pope that could radically change the church's stance on women, her life is thrown in turmoil. Knight errant Sir Robert Clarwyn has been sent by King Edward I of England to marry her off as political leverage. If he can't find a way to compel her to return to England, he'll lose any chance of regaining his family lands and redeeming his heritage. Can Juliana find a way to use this godsend for her own agenda--without risking their hearts, too? Knight Protector: Blackmailed into marrying her family's enemy, then swiftly widowed by illness, Lady Sorcha Marr must take charge of a clan who hates her. But fate intervenes with the return of her husband's twin--Sir Colin Marr, who betrayed her and led to her downfall. A decade later, he's back to root out the Scottish traitors who have infiltrated his family stronghold, and he must persuade Sorcha to set aside her hostility and treat him as her husband in his brother's place. He needs the cover not only to save Scotland but to protect her inheritance, which his resentful clan would gladly confiscate. Has fate set them up to even an old score, or embark on a beautiful new beginning? Knight Defender: Sent alone to wed a wild Scot to serve the needs of her father and her king, Lady Jessamyn intends to escape the marriage for a nunnery. But her intended is not the monster she imagined--just Baron Raeb MacKai, a man struggling to provide the best for his clan...even if that involves attacking the king's ship that bears her brother. The Scot's secret plot to keep King Edward I from getting a foothold on their rugged coastline will secure his family's future. If Raeb must deny himself the spirited woman who would warm his bed, so be it. But can he truly deny his heart? Sensuality Level: Sensual
Book Synopsis Sir Gawain and the Green Knight by : Elisabeth Brewer
Download or read book Sir Gawain and the Green Knight written by Elisabeth Brewer and published by Boydell & Brewer Ltd. This book was released on 1992 with total page 194 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Sir Gawain and the Green Knight' is a great poem that gives some powerful twists to traditional materials. The story combines two ancient elements, beheading and seduction, in a fresh and remarkable way; it takes familiar medieval themes -- the feast, the seasons, the arming of the warrior, the hunt -- and gives them a new glamor. The 'intertextuality' of this brilliant poem can be most clearly seen through Elisabeth Brewer's modern English versions of other related medieval writings. Her book is a delightful and unusual small anthology of medieval literature; but its greatest success lies in providing a context for a fuller understanding of "Sir Gawain" through its presentation of extracts and poems (including translations from Celtic and French originals) illustrating the tradition in which the Gawain-poet wrote, underscoring his own great achievement. -- From publisher's description.
