About the Item
The Quest for the Holy Grail
In The Quest for the Holy Grail, an allegorical and mystical story in which the clerical influence and the Cistercian spirit make themselves felt, the "celestial" adventures are opposed to earthly undertakings and the figure of Gilead takes precedence over that of Lancelot. It is from the serialization of the different tables of the Grail that the Arthurian adventures develop. At the Last Supper where Christ took his last meal in the company of his apostles, a prefiguration of his eucharistic sacrifice, succeeded in the time of Joseph of Arimathea the service of the Grail. In the Quest, it is the assembly of Knights of the Round Table who are honored with the passing of the Grail through a wondrous celebration. This epiphany prompts the departure of the Arthurian knights in search of the Grail, kept in the castle of Corbenic by the line of the kings of the Grail. All the unfinished adventures set up in the History of the Holy Grail will then find their resolution thanks to the arrival of the chosen knight, Galaad the pure, the son of Lancelot and the daughter of King Pellès.. The loss of the Grail and its return to the East in the city of Sarras results from the corruption of the inhabitants of Great Britain and corresponds to the end of the marvelous adventures associated with this object. After the death of Gilead, the last novel in the cycle thus inevitably moves towards the death of King Arthur, the disappearance of his knights, and the destruction of his kingdom.
