No other edition accurately represents the actual (and likely authorial) divisions of the text as attested to by its two surviving witnesses-Caxton's 1485 print and, especially, the famous Winchester Manuscript. The Winchester Manuscript is now generally agreed to be the more authentic of the two earlier texts. The Norton Critical Edition is the first edition of Malory to recover important elements of this manuscript: paragraphing marginal annotations hierarchies of narrative division as signaled by size and decorative intricacy of initial capitals and font changes The Norton Critical Edition also represents, in black-letter font, the striking rubrication of proper names in the Winchester Manuscript, reconstructing for readers something of an authentic medieval reading experience, one which gives visual support to Malory's extraordinary representation, in character and setting, of a chivalric ideal. No other student edition of Malory contains such extensive contextual and critical support.

Review:
Le Morte d'Arthur remains an enchanted sea for the reader to swim about in, delighting at the random beauties of fifteenth-century prose. --Robert Graves
Synopsis:
Based on the Winchester Manuscript, this edition of the famous mediaeval romance offers substantial critical and contextual support for the student. Using the original spelling, the editor has restored the paragraphing and the narrative structure of the romance. Four chronologies, including one of the Wars of the Roses, contemporary accounts of the war, material on chivalry, tournaments and battle, and a guide to reading Malory's English are included.
