--- In rosamond@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx, "John Presco" <prosemont@xxxx> wrote: While Chretien's romance was the first, and remains in many ways central to developments within the tradition, other medieval writers took up the theme; as well as development, there is cross fertilisation. Between c. 1191-1200, the Burgundian poet, Robert de Boron, also writing at the behest of a crusader patron, the Lord of Montfacon, produced three romances, Joseph d'Arimathie, Merlin (most of which is lost) and Perceval (which may or may not actually have been written). All these romances treat the grail theme. Robert de Boron puts the grail into the context of Christ's passion. In Joseph d'Arimathie, Pilate gives the cup used at the Last Supper and Crucifixion to Joseph of Arimathea who is subsequently imprisoned. Christ brings the grail to Joseph in prison where it sustains him and teaches him its secrets. Joseph is freed by the emperor Vespasian who has been cured by Veronica's veil (another mysterious relic associated with Christ's passion). Robert introduces two more characters, Joseph's sister and her husband, Hebron (Bron). Joseph establishes a second table of the grail, and Bron catches a fish which is placed on the table and separates the just from the unjust. The object is called the Holy Grail at this point and gives joy to all who sit at the table. Alain, the leader of Bron's twelve sons, goes to Britain to await the "third man" (Perceval?) who will be the permanent keeper of the grail. Bron becomes the "Rich Fisher" and journeys with the grail to Britain, while Joseph returns to Arimathea. In Robert de Boron's Merlin, the magician constructs the Round Table in imitation of the Grail table and adds the Siege Perilous which awaits the truest knight who will find the grail. Later Merlin helps Perceval on his grail adventures, and after Perceval becomes Grail King Merlin retires to the woods to dictate the grail story to the priest, Blaise. Whether Robert de Boron actually wrote Perceval is not known but the prose version based on these romances (usually called the Roman du Graal) established the fashion for a new format which traced the history of the grail from its origins in the biblical story of Christ's passion to its achievement by one of the knights. In effect this became a grail cycle which focused on the knights who undertook the quest for the grail rather than the courtly knights who accomplished adventures for the love of a lady and the honour of the king. The Didot Perceval (c. 1220) is a prose romance based on Robert de Boron's lost Perceval and the Second Continuation. Here, Perceval is the son of Alain le Gros (evidence of the Joseph of Arimathea tradition). After he sits in the forbidden seat at the Round Table, the stone splits, the grail appears, and a voice announces the quest to restore order and lift the enchantments. The context is Arthur's court and the grail is absorbed into the Arthurian saga in which all the knights undertake the quest. Perceval's adventures include the loss of a stag and hound (from the Second Continuation), the fight with the knight of the tomb, the children in the tree, the hermit uncle and the Fisher King (from Chretien), and an encounter with Merlin (from Robert de Boron). Perceval asks the grail questions which cure the Fisher King, repairs the stone, reveals the secret of the grail (not to the reader of course), and remains as ruler of Grail castle. Then the tale continues with Arthur as its focus.
