Description

'Myths & Legends Of The Middle Ages, Their Origin And Influence On Literature And Art', by H. A. Guerber, published by George G. Harrap & Company, London, 1926.
Full green leather binding with three raised bands to the spine, a tan leather title panel and decorative gilt stamped decoration. Oundle School (Northamptonshire) crest gilt stamped to front board. Gilt stamped border to both boards.
Oundle School prize plate to pastedown dated 1926. Prize was awarded to 'H. H. H. Boehm', who later became Lieutenant Colonel H.H.H. Boehm (O.B.E., T.D.), a British Army officer best known for commanding the 1st Battalion of the Buckinghamshire Regiment during World War II. He commanded the 1st Buckinghamshires in France following the Normandy invasion. His unit famously took up positions near Quistreham and guarded vital bridges over the River Orne.
There is some light spotting to the preliminary pages but otherwise the pages remain in a good condition throughout. Clean and free from inscription.
SYNOPSIS
Hélène A. Guerber’s work presents sixteen key myths and legends of the Arthurian, Carolingian, Teutonic and Scandinavian cycles which embody the chivalric code and which inspired the greatest works of romance literature and art. The tales illuminate the mystical significance of knighthood and its ethos of self-purification and honour, decoding many allusions found in medieval art, literature and song.
