Sinopsis

'The Monks and the Giants' is a humorous and imaginative work by John Hookham Frere, presented as a prospectus for a larger, never-completed epic about King Arthur and his Round Table. Written in mock-heroic style, it satirizes contemporary literary trends and societal norms through the lens of Arthurian legend. Frere?s clever use of language and playful tone make this fragment a delightful and insightful commentary on the romanticized view of the past. This edition offers readers a glimpse into Frere?s creative genius and provides historical context for understanding the literary landscape of the early 19th century. It remains a fascinating example of satire and a testament to the enduring appeal of Arthurian mythology.This work has been selected by scholars as being culturally important, and is part of the knowledge base of civilization as we know it.
