Knights and ladies, giants and dragons, tournaments, battles, quests and crusades are commonplace in stories for children. This book examines how late Victorians and Edwardians retold medieval narratives of chivalry--epics, romances, sagas, legends and ballads. Stories of Beowulf, Arthur, Gawain, St. George, Roland, Robin Hood and many more thrilled and instructed children, and encouraged adult reading. Lavish volumes and schoolbooks of the era featured illustrated texts, many by major artists. Children's books, an essential part of Edwardian publishing, were disseminated throughout the English-speaking world. Many are being reprinted today. This book examines related contexts of Medievalism expressed in painting, architecture, music and public celebrations, and the works of major authors, including Sir Walter Scott, Tennyson, Longfellow and William Morris. The book explores national identity expressed through literature, ideals of honor and valor in the years before World War I, and how childhood reading influenced 20th-century writers as diverse as C. S. Lewis, J. R. R. Tolkien, Siegfried Sassoon, David Jones, Graham Greene, Ian Fleming and John Le Carre.

Excerpt from Heroes of Chivalry and Romance In writing the story of Beowulf I have been helped by Kemble's translation and notes, and still more by Professor Earle's admirable edition. In telling the Nibelung tale I have always had at hand the translation by Mr W N. Lettsom, and have also made use of a version made by Miss Alice Horton and published this year under the editorship of Mr. Edward Bell. I desire thankfully to acknowledge the obligation under which I stand to both these works. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
