Description:Translated from the Old French and Old Norse By Roger Sherman Loomis.One of the earliest extant versions of the Tristan and Yseut story, Beroul's French manuscript of The Romance of Tristan dates back to the middle of the twelfth century. It recounts the legend of Tristan, nephew of King Mark of Cornwall, and the king's Irish wife Yseut, who fall passionately in love after mistakenly drinking a potion. In this book, the late Roger Sherman Loomis, one of America's finest specialists in medieval literature, has produced a splendid translation of this story of deathless love, one of the greatest poems of the Middle Ages, and the ultimate source of Wagner's Tristan and Isolde. Dr. Loomis's translation carefully retains the flavor and charm of the original Anglo-Norman poem that was written by a worldly cleric at the brilliant court of Henry II and Eleanor of Aquitaine in early 12th-century England. The introduction gives a full account of the writing of the poem, the book is illustrated with twenty-three of the renowned 13th-century Chertsey Tiles showing scenes from the poem, and a glossary has been included.We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
