The Grail Procession: The Legend, the Artifacts, and the Possible Sources of the Story

Autor Justin E. Griffin
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 31 oct 2004
By the 12th century, European literature was rich with tales of a procession carrying a group of objects closely tied to the passion of Christ--the Holy Grail, the lance that pierced Christ's side, the sword used to behead John the Baptist, and a dish from the Last Supper. While legends of the quest for the Holy Grail continue to grip the popular imagination, the other relics receive little mention. This exploration of the forgotten relics of the Grail Procession examines the body of evidence hinting at their authenticity, and traces their history as symbols, from the early days of Christianity, to Celtic mythology, to "the foggy wastelands inhabited by history's outcasts," to the suits of the modern tarot. The oral histories and a possible source-book that informed the earliest known stories are discussed.
