Perceval: A Casebook (Arthurian Characters and Themes)

Editorial Reviews
Book Description

This volume in the Arthurian Characters and Themes series treats the fascinating character of Perceval (or Parzival), the naive and flawed but gifted youth who becomes the Grail hero in some texts and yet is eclipsed in others by Galahad. Concentrating on medieval and modern literature, film, and Wagnerian opera, the book gathers both classic studies and new essays commissioned for this volume.
