Document

Medievalists are increasingly grappling with spatial studies. This timely book argues that geography is a crucial element in Sir Thomas Malory's M orte Darthur and contributors shine a light on questions of politics and genre to help readers better understand Malory's world.This book redraws the map of Arthurian studies. Challenging the common understanding of Malory's Morte Darthur as a celebration of an expansionist, united England, this book's closer attention to geography and regional identities brings out political subtexts about the heterogeneous nature of Britain. Transforming the understanding of Arthur and his major knights by placing them in their regional home territories, this approach shows a fractured and far-flung Britain. The careers of the famous knights have a geopolitical logic, defined not just by the big kingdoms of Scotland, Wales, France, and England, but also by smaller territories such as Orkney, Cornwall, and the Isles. Under constant pressure, knights' regional identities are formed by negotiation with other territories and with imagined histories that stretch as far as Rome and Sarras. The complex relations among places result in a far more contested and variegated form of nationalism than expected in the transition from the Middle Ages to the Early Modern period.

520 1 $a By tracking the complex ways that questions of space and geography inform Le Morte Darthur, Dorsey Armstrong and Kenneth Hodges have generated a striking reassessment of Malory's great work. Gracefully written, amply researched, and persuasively argued, Mapping Malory: Regional Identities and National Geographies in Le Morte Darthur should be on the reading list of anyone seeking a fuller understanding of Arthurian literature. - Kathy Lavezzo, Associate Professor of English, The University of Iowa, USA Through exemplary collaboration, Dorsey Armstrong and Kenneth Hodges become the first critics effectively to describe Malorian geography, an archipelagic space mapped between ambitious Arthurian centralizing and complexly hybrid localisms. Original, sophisticated, refreshing, and highly recommended. - David Wallace, Judith Rodin Professor of English, University of Pennsylvania, USA, and author of Premodern Places: Calais to Surinam, Chaucer to Aphra Behn.
