Als der Ritter Sir Ywain Besuch von einem geheimnisvollen Knaben erhält, der ihn auffordert, mit ihm zu kommen, schwört er jeglichem weltlichen Besitz ab, übergibt sein Anwesen an seinen Bruder und macht sich allein und mittellos auf eine mythische Reise, die ihn in fremde Königreiche und sagenhafte Länder der Phantasie führt, um die Liebe seines Lebens zu finden, Lady Aithne, die aus einem alten Geschlecht von Feen abstammt. Alador ist ein allegorischer Roman über die Suche nach dem Ich und die Reise des Lebens von der Geburt bis in den Tod. Der Roman steht in der Tradition von William Morris und gilt in England als bedeutender Fantasy-Klassiker. Die vorliegende erste deutsche Übersetzung enthält die Illustrationen der Erstausgabe von Lady Hamilton.
Henry John Newbolt Bücher
Dieser englische Dichter ist am besten für seine lyrischen Stücke bekannt, die oft Propagandazwecken dienten. Während des Ersten Weltkriegs fand sein Werk Anklang bei den patriotischen und moralischen Idealen der Zeit. Seine Verse zeichnen sich durch ein starkes Pflicht- und Ehrgefühl aus.
