- Notes:
- "The object of this essay is the study and comparison of the ideals of the various inhabitants of the British Isles, from the earliest times to the end of the middle ages, as exemplified in certain of the heroes of their popular literature ... I have selected Beowulf as the typical hero of the Anglo-Saxons, Cuchulain for the Irish and the Arthur of Malory for the Middle English. [For the Welsh] it has been decided to consider the different heroes ... in the Mabinogion and the early Welsh poetry."--p. 5.
