Sobre IBD

A king’s love faces the impossible, as loyalty and longing cross the boundaries between worlds. In this masterful adaptation by Edward Eyre Hunt, the legendary tale of Sir Orfeo is brought to life for a new generation - a story where medieval romance poetry and mythical transformation blend in the shadowed forests and courts of 14th century England. Inspired by the rich tradition of Middle English literature and echoing the intrigue of Arthurian legends, this narrative weaves together themes of courtly love, loss, and the enduring power of hope.Sir Orfeo’s journey, rooted in medieval British folklore and shaped by Chaucerian influences, stands as a luminous example of classic literary adaptation. Hunt’s retelling preserves the lyrical beauty and emotional depth of the original, making it accessible for both fans of classic poetry and those new to the wonders of medieval romance. Perfect for literature students seeking a resource on the era or readers captivated by the timeless dance of love and loyalty, this edition bridges the gap between past and present.Republished by Alpha Editions in a careful modern edition, this volume preserves the spirit of the original while making it effortless to enjoy today - a heritage title prepared for readers and collectors alike.
