Book Description
Fate brought them together. Will destiny tear them apart? Do you believe in fate? Museum curator Hal Campion sure does. The moment he meets high school teacher Beth Astley at a Renaissance fair, the woman who’s been haunting his dreams, he knows fate has brought them together. Beth believes she makes her own fate, until she finds what she thinks is a costume gauntlet from a suit of armor and snatches it from under Hal’s nose. She soon discovers the gauntlet is real and it possesses a sinister power that links her destiny to Hal’s. In this suspenseful and supernatural tale, Beth and Hal are hurtled across time to an age of gallant knights and their faithful ladies, where they face a deadly foe bent on tearing them apart. They must join forces in both the past and present to reunite the haunted gauntlet to its ancient suit of armor—and defeat a centuries-old curse before it destroys them both. Note: The Fateful Knight is an enemies-to-lovers novella-length story that includes some scenes of violence (intense swordfights).

When Morgan McRobbie rescues a damsel-in-distress from a dragon, he expects she’ll swoon, murmuring “My hero!” Instead, Marissa has only loathing for the man everyone believes will betray Kilbourne.

Posing as a turncoat himself, he’s walking a fine line between honor and betrayal.

If Morgan’s going to save the kingdom, win the girl, and manage to stay alive, he’ll need to step up his game. Because the traitor is lurking in the shadows, and his scheme calls not just for the betrayal of Kilbourne, but also the destruction of Morgan McRobbie.

Outsiders
Author: Sylvia Huot
Publisher: University of Notre Dame Pess
ISBN: 0268081832
Category : Literary Criticism
Languages : en
Pages : 368
Book Description
Giants are a ubiquitous feature of medieval romance. As remnants of a British prehistory prior to the civilization established, according to the Historium regum Britannie, by Brutus and his Trojan followers, giants are permanently at odds with the chivalric culture of the romance world. Whether they are portrayed as brute savages or as tyrannical pagan lords, giants serve as a limit against which the chivalric hero can measure himself. In Outsiders: The Humanity and Inhumanity of Giants in Medieval French Prose Romance, Sylvia Huot argues that the presence of giants allows for fantasies of ethnic and cultural conflict and conquest, and for the presentation—and suppression—of alternative narrative and historical trajectories that might have made Arthurian Britain a very different place. Focusing on medieval French prose romance and drawing on aspects of postcolonial theory, Huot examines the role of giants in constructions of race, class, gender, and human subjectivity. She selects for study the well-known prose Lancelot and the prose Tristan, as well as the lesser known Perceforest, Le Conte du papegau, Guiron le Courtois, and Des Grantz Geants. By asking to what extent views of giants in Arthurian romance respond to questions that concern twenty-first-century readers, Huot demonstrates the usefulness of current theoretical concepts and the issues they raise for rethinking medieval literature from a modern perspective.

Chretien de Troyes was France's great medieval poet—inventor of the genre of courtly romance and popularizer of the Arthurian legend.

In Sealed in Parchment, Sandra Hindman scrutinizes both text and images to reveal what the manuscripts can tell us about medieval society and politics.
