Download The Death of King Arthur: A New Verse Translation AudioBook Free
First showing up around 1400, The Alliterative Morte Arthur, or The Death of Ruler Arthur, is one of the very most widely cherished and spectacularly alliterative poems ever penned in Midsection British. Now, from the internationally acclaimed translator of Sir Gawain and the Green Knight, comes this magisterial new demonstration of the Arthurian story, rendered in unflinching and gory depth. Following Arthur's bloody conquests across the cities and domains of Europe, completely to his spectacular and even bloodier show up, this masterpiece features a few of the most spellbinding and poignant passages in British poetry. Nothing you've seen prior have the deaths of Arthur's faithful knights, his own last hours, and the next burial been so poignantly evoked. Echoing the lyrical interest that so distinguished Seamus Heaney's Beowulf, Simon Armitage has produced a virtuosic new translation that pledges to become both literary event of the entire year and the definitive model for generations to come.
