Description:Going on a quest of Thomas Malory and of the meaning of his classic "Le Morte d Arthur," this work addresses the text s central preoccupations violence, desire, and the nature of Englishness by asking such questions as "Who was Malory? Why did successive authorities want to lock him up? How did he come to write the" Le Morte d Arthur"?" and "Why has that text been so persistent a presence in English culture?" The book places Malory in his social context, at a time of unprecedented national and regional unrest, and author T. J. Lustig traces the connections between writers and commentators from Tennyson to T. S. Eliot who have been fascinated by Malory s work.
