Description

The Fall of Arthur is an unfinished poem by J.R.R. Tolkien, which was retrieved from his archives by his son Christopher. It tells the story of the legendary King Arthur's final campaign, during which, while in the outskirts of the Mirkwood forest, he is forced to return to Britain upon learning of his son Mordred's betrayal.

Already with morale wounded by the infidelity of his wife Guinevere with the now-exiled leader of the knights Lancelot, Arthur rallies his loyal knights for the final battle against the rebellious Mordred and his foreign mercenaries. Full of strength, passion, and vivid imagery, the poem showcases the unique narrative gift of the great J.R.R. Tolkien.

Included are three informative texts by Christopher Tolkien, where the literary universe of the stories of King Arthur is explored, the deeper meaning of the verses is revealed, and the special relationship between The Fall of Arthur and the author's most significant creation, The Silmarillion, is identified.

In the Greek translation, iambic pentameter is used. The translated poem coexists with the original text so that, along with the translator's footnotes, the reader can better understand the legend that has captivated audiences for centuries.
