| 520 | _a"The Book of Romance" edited by Andrew Lang is a collection of Arthurian and medieval romances, accompanied by illustrations from H. J. Ford, produced at the start of the 20th century. The collection explores classic tales from the round table, invoking legendary figures such as King Arthur, Guinevere, and Merlin, and encompassing themes of chivalry, adventure, and love. The opening of the collection begins by setting a contemplative tone in its preface, underscoring the timeless nature of the stories contained within. Lang reflects on the origin of romances, suggesting they are grown-up fairy tales, a notion supported by the narratives that arise from many cultures. He provides the backdrop for famous tales, such as that of Arthur pulling Excalibur from the stone, and introduces characters facing trials where virtue and valor are paramount. Overall, this initial section establishes the groundwork for the adventures that will unfold throughout the book, encouraging readers to explore the interconnected tales of heroism, romance, and moral lessons embodied within each story.
