Abstract:
Motion in Le Morte Darthur is a significant trope; by examining it we can grasp one key element of its literary vision. The narrative of this work and its characters are driven by constant, intuitive movement that fiercely opposes stasis. This force is fundamental to the fabric of Malory’s world.
