Abstract: Figures like Tristan & Arthur, Jeanne d'Arc & Richard Lionheart have formed our perception of the Middle Ages. As the topic of countless tales and images they build a reservoir of cultural associations even if the figures themselves sometimes become blurred. The 128 articles in this volume follow these figures from the source through the medieval renderings through to modern reception in opera, theatre and film.
