Zustand des Schutzumschlags: Fine. 1st Edition. xii, 273 pages : illustrations ; 25 cm OCLC 22709876 ISBN 9780060164423, 0060164425 LCCN 89046530 LC PN57.G85 G66 1991 Dewey 809.93351 [ green and white cloth in pictorial dustjacket ; The third book in the acclaimed historical series that began with King…Arthur and Merlin. The world's most important Arthurian expert presents a riveting portrait of the darkly complex woman known only through legend.; An investigation into the historical woman, Guinevere, believed the legend of King Arthur's queen ; She now adds her interpretations of French romances and Finnish mythology to "prove" Guinevere was a Pictish high priestess. Most of her argument is based on the Prose Lancelot , written in the early 13th century. It is difficult to accept the validity of Goodrich's conclusions when she relies so heavily on these romances as historical proof and provides few footnotes to reinforce her findings. The prose is florid and confusing. Paragraphs often read as though she simply grouped several sentences together. General readers drawn in by the advertising will be disappointed. Not recommended. - Pamela A. Grudzien ; She is not only the leading authority on King Arthur, but also an honest discussion of other voices.--Robert Rey Black ; FINE/FINE. Book.
