This book presents a broad and deep symbolic reading of the characters involved in the mythical Holy Grail. The author makes several correlations between symbolic readings of the text and the subjective nature of the mythic psyche and personality development today. The Grail, Arthur and his Knights is a mythical-symbolic reading and Jungian analysis of the Grail, with its various forms, origins and manifestations. It is also about Arthur and his loyal and faithful knights of the Round Table and its dangerous chair. The Great Wounded Goddess, the Wasted Land, the Old Wise Merlin and his visions of the future are also re-examined. The book describes the archetyal themes of search, freedom, and the dreaming return of Golden Age. The symbolic reading of these themes according to the Analytical Psychology reveals a wealth of ancient wisdom, transforming the myth, in itself deeply fascinating, into a powerful metaphor for how the search of the individuation process works.

65 Jahre nach der Gründung der Internationalen Artusgesellschaft und nach der Formulierung des "doppelten Kursus" durch Hugo Kuhn (1948) fragt die Artusforschung nach ihrem aktuellen Stand im Kontext einer Literaturwissenschaft als Kulturwissenschaft, indem sie gezielt kulturwissenschaftliche Fragestellungen historisiert. Junge und erfahrene Wissenschaftler(innen) aus verschiedenen Ländern Europas und den USA erlauben einen Einblick in ihre laufenden Forschungsarbeiten zur Artusliteratur. Am Beispiel deutscher, französischer, portugiesischer, niederländischer und englischer Artusromane verhandeln sie zentrale Probleme aus den Bereichen der Gender Studies, der Spiritualitätsforschung, Literatursoziologie und Gewaltforschung, der Narratologie und Medienkulturwissenschaft. Gefragt wird u.a. nach der semantischen Aufladungen von Lichteffekten in der Literatur, nach der Kodierung von Sinnlosigkeit und Paradoxie, nach der Signalfunktion von Namen und nach dem Verhältnis von Gewalt und Spiritualität. In einem weiten Netz vielfältig miteinander verknüpfter Fragestellungen erweisen sie eindrücklich, welchen reichen Beitrag die interdisziplinäre Artusforschung zum Dialog über kulturwissenschaftliche Grundprobleme liefern kann.

Sex, blood, and gender have diverse associations in the Malorian tradition, yet their inter-relatedness and intersections are comparatively understudied. This present collection of essays is intended to go some way toward remedying the need for a sustained examination of blood ties, kinship, gender, and sexuality, and the prominence of these themes in Malory's work. They concentrate in particular upon the analyses of sexuality and sexual activity (and its lack or erasure) and the significance of blood (and blood-shedding) in the 'Morte Darthur', as well as the interconnections with gender (biological sex) and familial ("blood") relations in the 'Morte', its sources and its later reworkings. The result is a wide-ranging investigation into related but distinctive thematic preoccupations, including the national and kinship affiliations of Malorian knights, sibling relationships, deviant sexuality, and blood-spilling in martial and intimate contexts.

Fletcher, Kate McClune, Sally Mapstone, Caitlyn Schwartz, Maria Sachiko Cecire, Anna Caughey, Catherine LaFarge
