About this book
Studies on the Legend of the Holy Grail examines versions of the story, including named authors and evidence used to date their work. The discussion identifies Messires Roberz de Beron as the author named in one version and compares the name with Meistres Robers dist de Bouron. The dating argument suggests 1170 and 1212 as limits for the versions associated with Robert.
The comparison of the Mabinogi and Chrestien finds the same sequence apart from the position of the Blanchefleur incident. The analysis treats that similarity of order as grounds for a possible relationship of copy to original, and looks for further support in the Mabinogi.
