Excerpt from Sir Perceval of Galles: A Study of the Sources of the Legend In making this investigation, many obstacles besides the scantiness of time allowed by classroom duties have had to be overcome. The University of Texas library is not a large one, and, in the field immediately concerned, is weak. Access to needed books has been had only in summer vacations and in libraries a thousand miles and more away from Austin. The difficulty continues a very present one. In seeing the book through the press, I have not been able to verify references by a comparison with original authorities, but have had to rely upon my manuscript notes. To hope that no errors have crept in is unreasonable; but I trust the reader will find them few, and will believe that I have made a painstaking endeavor to avoid them. In seeking the origins of the Perceval tale, I have circumscribed the interpretation of "origins." It is the immediate ancestry, not the ultimate source, that has here been sought. I have made no inquiry into Old Irish literature in the expectation of pointing out its parallels to the Perceval tale, if such there be; nor any into folklore domains in the hope of tracing the tale or its elements to an origin in custom, myth, or religion. Finally, the Grail problem lies outside the limits of this investigation, since no allusion to the Grail occurs in the English poem which is taken as the point of departure. In several ways this study is incomplete, as perhaps any study of its kind must be. The number of tales discussed is large, for I have mentioned every tale I have found that appears to throw light on the origin of the tale of Perceval as it is told in Sir Perceval of Galles; but the collection makes no pretense to finality. There are doubtless many variants now unknown to me. If the reader will indicate any such, I shall feel much beholden to him.

This volume contains the only known English version of Chretien de Troyes's romance of the naive knight Perceval, Sir Perceval of Galles. The work uses Perceval's ridiculous behavior as a late medieval satire of courtliness. Accompanying this tale is Ywain and Gawain, a translation of a second Chretien poem, Le Chevalier au Lion. Unlike Sir Perceval, this poem extols the virtues of chivalry and honor. These complementary works form an excellent introduction to Middle English Arthurian romance, as they include editing, glosses, introductions, and a very helpful glossary for beginning students.

Joseph G. Stolp settled in Aurora on June 12, 1837, when there were 33 residents in the pioneer village. Stolp's vision helped shape the city's destiny. The Aurora Electric Light and Power Company used 2,000-candlepower electric lamps for the first streetlights in 1881. Today, the "City of Lights" is home to 200,000 residents and a diverse population with 42 percent of Hispanic heritage. The character of her people made Aurora an enterprising city. Notable residents include Maud Powell, violin virtuoso, and Harry C. Murphy, president of the Burlington Railroad. Profiles of Greek immigrant George Andrews and Aurora-born artist Wendell Minor, as well as Polish leader Bruno Bartoszek, color these pages with biographies of greatness. Astute business leaders include Robert Bonifas, Ken Nagel, Louis Leonardi, and Frank C. Schaefer. Dr. Stephanie Pace Marshall, Dr. Christine Sobek, and Dick Schindel give testament to adroit educational leadership. Legendary Locals of Aurora chronicles how the city's history has been blessed with noble and innovative leaders.
