The Seven Champions of Christendom (1596/7)Ashgate, 2003 - 317 Seiten Although Richard Johnson's chivalric romance The Seven Champions of Christendom is little known today, it was widely read for over three centuries after its first appearance in print in the 1590s, influencing the work of English writers from John Bunyan to G.K. Chesterton and profoundly affecting the representation of St George, England's patron saint, in folklore and popular culture. |
