This study, published in the "Grimm Library" will be warmly welcomed by all who know Miss Weston's translation of Eschenbach, nor will they be disappointed. Wide reading and deep insight are combined with no mean literary charm. The legends centering round the once all noble, latterly much disparaged hero are narrated and discussed in a manner at once scholarly and picturesque. They lose none of their beauty of romance in passing under the critical microscope which elicits from them their yet more romantic origin deep in the conception of the universe, fragmentary indeed, but with vivid graphic touches, in the primitive Keltic brain. Most of Miss Weston's results appear to us of the highest probability, least perhaps the connection of Gawain with a Solar Myth (an almost universal temptation) though this also is not unsupported by evidence. May we look for further studies in this enchanting field from the same pen? -The Cambridge Review, Vol. 19 [1898]
