Jerusalem and the crusades
The lost land of King Arthur
Название: The lost land of King Arthur Издательство: Chapman and Hall Автор: Walters, John Cuming Год: 1909 Количество страниц: 312 Формат: PDF Размер: 15 mb Язык: English WITHIN a small area in the West Country may be found the principal places mentioned in the written chronicles of King Arthur places with strange long histories and of natural charm. In these pages an impressionist view is given of the region once called Cameliard and Lyonnesse. We have ventured into by-ways seldom entered, and we trust to have gathered a few details which may not be wholly without interest in their place. Facts are meagre about King Arthur, and romance has. so overlaid reality that his realm seems now to be veritably a part of fairy-land. In this respect the journey is profitless, save that, by taking Malory as a guide, we are led to a few delightful and half-forgotten localities out of the ordinary route, from which romance has not been wholly dislodged and where tradition survives and is strong.
