This Wordsworth Classics edition transports you to a realm of noble knights, colorful tournaments, and fateful loves, all set in a courtly society that appears secure but is internally divided by betrayal. Originally published in 1485, this masterpiece is a timeless exploration of themes such as love, war, religion, and family loyalty. Discover why the story of King Arthur and the Knights of the Round Table continues to captivate readers of all ages.

Sir Thomas Malory was an English writer, the author of Le Morte d'Arthur, the classic English-language chronicle of the Arthurian legend, compiled and in most cases translated from French sources. The most popular version of Le Morte d'Arthur was published by the famed London printer William Caxton in 1485. Much of Malory's life history is obscure, but he identified himself as a "knight prisoner", apparently reflecting that he was either a criminal, a prisoner-of-war, or suffering some other type of confinement. Malory's identity has never been confirmed. Since modern scholars began researching his identity the most widely accepted candidate has been Sir Thomas Malory of Newbold Revel in Warwickshire, who was imprisoned at various times for criminal acts and possibly also for political reasons during the Wars of the Roses. Recent work by Cecelia Lampp Linton, however, presents new evidence in support of Thomas Malory of Hutton Conyers, Yorkshire.
