About the Author:
Andrew Lang (March, 31, 1844 July 20, 1912) was a Scottish writer and literary critic who is best known as a collector of folk and fairy tales. Lang s academic interests extended beyond the literary and he was a noted contributor to the fields of anthropology, folklore, psychical research, history, and classic scholarship, as well as the inspiration for the University of St. Andrew s Andrew Lang Lectures. A prolific author, Lang published more than 100 works during his career, including twelve fairy books, in which he compiled folk and fairy tales from around the world. Lang s Lilac Fairy and Red Fairy books are credited with influencing J. R. R. Tolkien, who commented on the importance of fairy stories in the modern world in his 1939 Andrew Lang Lecture On Fairy-Stories.

Book Description Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. In this selection of tales by the master folklorist Andrew Lang, the reader is taken into the romantic world of the gallant Knights of the Round Table and their courageous and chivalrous deeds, fair maidens, castles steeped in history, the quest for the Holy Grail, and the tragic love of King Arthur and Sir Lancelot for Guinevere, and Tristan for Iseult. The Arthurian legends are the most potent of the thrilling and mist-enshrouded tales of adventure to be passed down from pre-recorded history, and they have as much appeal today as they did in the age of the troubadours. Tales include: The Drawing of the Sword The Questing Beast The Sword Excalibur The Story of Sir Balin How the Round Table Began The Passing of Merlin How Morgan le Fay Tried to Kill King Arthur What Beaumains Asked of the King The Quest of the Holy Grail The Fight for the Queen The Fair Maid of Astolat Lancelot and Guenevere The End of It All AUTHOR: Andrew Lang (1844 - 1912) was one of the most important collectors of folk and fairy tales, which he edited into twenty volumes, from 'The Blue Book' onwards. Some of his best work is available from Wordsworth, in 'Tales from the Arabian Nights', 'Tales of Troy and Greece', and 'Tales from King Arthur'. In this selection of plays by the editor, the reader is taken into the romantic world of the gallant knights of the round table and their courageous and chivalrous deeds, fair maidens, castles steeped in history, the quest for the holy grail, and tragic love for Guinevere.
