The Middle English poem Morte Arthure offers ‘an acute observation of the loneliness of kingship and the folly of pride’ as it describes the legendary king’s refusal of demands from Roman emissaries and his pursuit of war against foes abroad, which he wins at the expense of his power at home. This translation uses the alliterative scheme of the original, with illustrations that reflect the text’s dark humour.
