Download or read book King Arthur's Raid on Hell and Other Poems written by G. R. Grove and published by Lulu.com. This book was released on 2010-04-01 with total page 98 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is my first collection of poetry (the second is "Pryderi's Pigs and other poems"). Most of these poems are written in medieval fixed forms, or approximations of medieval forms ' one of my on-going quests being a search for ways of reproducing the sound and feel of medieval Welsh poetry in modern English. And yet, because the bardic art I practice is a performance art, these are in a larger sense not my poems at all, but merely pale imitations ' poems preserved on paper. Until I can come and sing the real poems to you, I hope you will enjoy the substitutes.
