Synopsis
The medieval interest in saintly relics is well known, but there are also medieval stories and shrines associated with the relics of BritainĘs Arthurian past.
In this original look at the world of Arthur, the authors show how the people of medieval England engaged with the Arthurian legend. Individual chapters cover Winchester as the site of Camelot, the crown of Arthur presented by Edward I, the various items associated with Dover, Glastonbury Abbey and other sites. Far from being credulous and gullible, it is clear that people actively debated Arthurian history. The book concludes with a discussion of the sixteenth-century antiquarian John Leland and those who followed in his footsteps, continuing to search for the physical remains of Arthur and his court.
