The Arthurian Vulgate by anonymous
A sprawling medieval prose cycle that reshapes and unifies Arthurian legends into a coherent narrative, tracing the origins of the Holy Grail, the rise and tragic adultery of the greatest knight, and the spiritual Quest that culminates in Galahad’s purity. It mixes chivalric adventure, theological reflection, family lineage and courtly politics to explain Camelot’s greatness and eventual downfall, and it heavily influenced later retellings of the Arthurian tradition.
