- W582553514 abstract "88ARTHURIANA The book contains a bibliography of 60 pages, indices of papal documents and biblical passages and a general index. There are also eight black and white illustrations with extensive captions (between pp. 140 and 141 and also p. 327 for 'caption' to plate 8) illustrating the general themes of the book. JOHN 0. WARD University of Sydney Keith busby, WordandImage in Arthurian Literature. New York: Garland, 1996. Pp. 392. isbn: 0-8153-2050—7. $75. This collection of articles teflects various approaches to the topic 'Word and Image,' the title of the session in which they were presented at the XVIIth International Congress ofthe Arthurian Society (Bonn, 1993). Most treat the relationship between the text and the visual material which accompanies it; several authors study the text with respect to its cultural context. Four authors focus on the Lancelot-Grail cycle. Susan A. Blackman's ? Pictorial Synopsis ofArthurian Episodes for Jacques d'Armagnac, Duke ofNemours' provides exhaustive supporting information for her argument that Armagnacs collection of Arthurian romances (Paris BN 112, 113-116, and 117-120) constitute 'an exhaustive and largely non-repetitive visual synopsis of Arthurian episodes that emphasizes the completeness of the narrative' (p. 3). Carol R. Dover, in 'Imagines Historiarum: Text and Image in the French Prose Lancelot,' examines how several manuscripts visually present the episode of the split shield. Dover convincingly argues that the visual representation ofthe split shield enables the reader to understand the personal, sentimental importance of the shield for Lancelot as well as the written 'objective' story which the scribes recorded at Arthur's request. As the title suggests, Alison Stones's 'The Illustrations of BN, fr. 95 and Yale 229: Prolegomena to a Comparative Analysis' seems preliminary to an eventual analysis. Her detailed, technical discussion of the two texts reveals a great deal ofexperience with the topic and presents a useful method for approaching such texts. Fourth, Lori Walters's 'Wonders and Illuminations: Pierart douThelt and the Queste delSaint Graal,' focuses on manuscript Paris Arsenal 5218 to show how the illustrations in a text can convey the place and historical moment which produced it. Walters argues that this manuscript's unique combination of a full version ofthe Vulgate Questewith historical annals reflects the theological interests of Pierart dou Tielt and fourteenth-century Tournai. Two articles treat works by Chrétien de Troyes: Carleton W Carroll's 'Text and Image: The Case oí Erec et Enide' and Michèle Vauthier's 'The Roi Pescheor and Iconographie Implications in the Conte del Graal.' Carroll examines the illustrations to two manuscripts oí Erec et Enide (Paris, BN 1376 and 24403) and concludes thar sometimes the illustrations follow the text closely and sometimes they do not, a conclusion that does not seem to make good use of Carroll's expertise with this romance. Vautiers discussion centers on the relationship between the iconography of Chretien's Conte del Graal and the spiritual state of Chretien's patron, Philippe REVIEWS89 d'Alsace. Vauthier's familiarity with the text, the Biblical traditions to which Chrétien likely refers, and medieval iconography make her discussion intriguing, though the quality of her prose often detracts from her ideas. Two other articles treat the Tristan story: Jacqueline Thibault Schaefer's 'The Discourse of the Figurai Narrative in the Illuminated Manuscripts of Tristan (1250— 1475),' and Stephanie Cain Van D'Elden's 'Discursive Illustrations in Three Tristan Manuscripts.' Schaefer's discussion attempts to fill a void she identifies in the study ofTristan manuscripts—insufficient analysis ofhow the illustrations 'narrate the myth (p. 175) and thus indicate reception of the romance. She concludes that at least a few episodes inspire illustrations which are specific to the romance: Tristan's madness, Iseut's attempt to have Brangien killed, the lovers' life in the forest, and the death of the lovers. Van D'Elden limits her examination to three manuscripts of the verse Tristan (Munich BS Cgm 51, London BL Add. 11619, and Cologne SHA W 88) and underscores how the visual messages transmitted through the illustrations do not always match the suggestions ofthe written text. She concludes: 'the viewers ofthese three pictorial cycles could choose an interpretation based on their own understanding ofthe written..." @default.
