While not neglecting the question of direct borrowings, author Paul Rovang applies a theory of intertextuality to probe how the poet responded to the chivalric romance themes, conventions, materials, and structures which he encountered in the Morte Darthur. Both works are treated not as monoliths, but as links in a network of texts and other cultural phenomena relating to chivalry. In this way, a fuller sense is given not only of how vitally connected the two works are, but of how Spenser "refashioned" the transmitted ideals and symbols of Arthurian knighthood for his own age.

Desde el paisaje físico del finisterre galaico, contemplado de la mano del que fuera su máximo cantor -Ramón Otero Pedrayo- este libro nos adentra, por el camino de la intrincada geografía de Galicia, en la rica panorámica de la cultura material y espiritual del pueblo gallego en la urdimbre de su historia, en la expresión melancólica y al tiempo recia de una comunidad marginada, cuya alma se transparenta a través de la lengua, de sus creaciones literarias y artísticas. Siempre bajo la experta guía de autorizados especialistas en cada tema, el lector hispano en general podrá descubrir la verdadera faz de un pueblo cuyos perfiles humanos -los socioeconómicos, los jurídico-institucionales, los de su reliogiosidad y cultura científica- son descritos, desde una perspectiva vernácula y como sustrato que nutre su realidad histórica, por los autores que mejor pueden dar a conocer la imagen de la Galicia del pasado, su desenvolvimiento moderno y su problemática actual.
