Pressezitat
"At every stage the argument is set forth cogently and sensitively, and the reader is rewarded with new insights into the meaning of numerous Arthurian romances. ...he throws new light on the central problem of the conflict between passion or unregulated sexuality and the knight's courtly obligations, and enhances our appreciation of the centrality of Gawein to Arthurian chivalry; on 'Wigalois' and 'Gauriel' in particular he is excellent. These books are further evidence of Neil Thomas's valuable growing volume of lucid and imaginative interpretation of German Arthurian romance."
