Relatos de los héroes griegos

Desde que hace más de 500 años Thomas Malory escribiera la historia del rey Arturo y las aventuras de sus caballeros, este tema ha permanecido vivo y presente no sólo en la literatura anglosajona sino en la universal, no sólo para adultos y eruditos sino para jóvenes de todas las edades. Aunque su maestría narrativa sea innegable, Malory nunca escribió una novela sobre el rey Arturo como una narración única, sino como una colección de historias diferentes basadas en diversos romances franceses medievales. Grandes escritores de todos los tiempos han escrito sobre este riquísimo mundo legendario. La versión que ahora publicamos de Roger Lancelyn Green, especialmente dirigida a los jóvenes y con los dibujos originales de Aubrey Beardsley de la edición de 1893, tiene el logro de reconstruir fielmente la obra de Malory a partir de todas las versiones medievales que se conocen, dando así coherencia argumental a todo su conjunto. Tal como hizo Joseph Bedier con la historia de Tristán e Iseo, Roger Lancelyn Green ha vuelto a contar el argumento principal de la leyenda artúrica sin dejar cabos sueltos, y lo ha hecho de la manera más sencilla y a la vez más completa. Tal vez para recordarnos que algunas cosas no deben olvidarse jamás.
