About the author

Jessie L. (Jessie Laidlay) Weston

1850–1928

A pioneering independent scholar of medieval literature, she became famous for bold, imaginative studies of the Grail legends and their links to myth and ritual. Her work helped shape how modern readers think about Arthurian stories, especially in the early 20th century.
