Morte Arthure or The Death of Arthur is a medieval poem written by Robert Thornton in Middle English. The poem tells the story of King Arthur's final battle against Mordred and his own death. It is divided into 1,184 lines and is considered one of the most important Arthurian legends in English literature. The poem is written in a style similar to that of the alliterative verse, which was common in medieval England. The story is based on the historical events of the Battle of Camlan, which took place in the 6th century. The poem includes vivid descriptions of the battle scenes, the bravery of the knights, and the tragic ending of the Arthurian legend. The book is a valuable source for scholars of medieval literature and those interested in the Arthurian legend.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
