The definitive English version of the stories of King Arthur, Le Morte Darthur was completed in 1469-70 by Sir Thomas Malory, "knight-prisoner". As well as celebrating the life of King Arthur and the chivalric ideals of his knights in their quest for the Holy Grail, Malory also charts the tragic disintegration of the fellowship of the Round Table, destroyed from within by warring factions. Treachery and rivalry break up the company, and when Lancelot and Guenivere's passion is forced into the open, and Sir Gareth slain, Arthur becomes trapped in a cycle of violence and revenge. This modern-spelling edition, in a new abridgement by Helen Cooper, is based on the authoritative Winchester manuscript and represents what Malory wrote more closely than the version printed by William Caxton.
