The Medieval Presence in Modernist Literature: The Quest to Fail
Ullyot, Jonathan (University of Chicago)
This book rethinks the influence that early medieval studies and Grail narratives had on modernist literature. Through examining several canonical works, from Henry James' The Golden Bowl to Samuel Beckett's Molloy, Ullyot argues that these texts serve as a continuation of the Grail legend inspired by medieval scholarship.
