Chrétien's Jewish Grail: A New Investigation of the Imagery and Significance of Chrétien de Troyes's Grail Episode Based on Medieval Hebraic Sources ... in the Romance Languages and Literatures)

Description

The author, after analyzing textual and iconographic descriptions of the medieval Jewish Passover Seder, concludes that Chretien de Troyes's Grail banquet (found in his romance Perceval) portrayed a Sephardic Seder. The author proves by documentary evidence the possibility of Chretien's having been influenced by Sephardic Jewry and structurally reinterprets the Perceval in terms of the Exodus motif.
