Poet, Public, and Performance in Ancient Greece
My attention was mainly on the RH material but all of it was interesting eg. the hundreds of changes made to an 1860's edition of Mallory's Le Morte d'Arthur to make it acceptable as the 'text'. What I also found very interesting was how, for much of the century, Marian provided a very different role model as compared to Guinevere etc. ie she resisted the conservative moral exemplum to which the others were employed.
I found Barczewski's examination of the roles played by the mythic icons of Arthur and RH in helping construct (and sometimes challenge) British history and character fascinating. There was one example that I thought was stretching things (which, of course, I now can't find) but overall this work is well researched and well argued.
