This book examines how late Victorians and Edwardians retold medieval narratives of chivalry--epics, romances, sagas, legends and ballads. This book examines related contexts of Medievalism expressed in painting, architecture, music, public celebrations, and the works of major authors"-- Provided by publisher.
