«L'avventura del Graal» is the historical essay by Andrew Sinclair, published by Mondadori in paperback (328 pages, in Italian).
Starting from the Arthurian legends, Andrew Sinclair traces the evolution of the Grail: its Celtic and Germanic origins, its passage through Spain and Italy, its link with alchemy and its presence in music. The chalice becomes an emblem of the human longing for transcendence and of a spirituality for a secularized world.
This ISBN is also registered as «La scoperta del Graal», from the «I grandi misteri» collection by Mondadori.
Recommended for readers interested in the Arthurian legend, the history of religions and medieval symbolism.
