Abstract

This chapter introduces the figures to be studied (the Lady of Shalott and Elaine of Astolat) and the theoretical perspectives that shape this book: feminist theories of death and representation, agency, the historical development of Arthurian legend, medievalism and neo-Victorianism, and adaptation theory. Table 1.1 is a Timeline of Lady/Elaine texts, from the nineteenth century to the present. The chapter ends with a consideration of trends in the production of Lady/Elaine texts and outlines the book’s chapters.
