Excerpt from The Evolution of Arthurian Romance From the Beginnings Down to the Year 1300, Vol. 2 The announcement of Professor Bruce's death, five months ago, was a shocking surprise to his academic colleagues. He was widely known as a man of that well poised physical vigor which warrants plans reaching far into the future; and Professor Bruce bad eagerly entertained plans for a longer life than was to be his. The completion of the work now published brought to a close a period of a dozen years in which he almost exclusively devoted his study and research to the execution of the purpose he has briefly described in the preface to the first volume. He was attracted to this task by the conviction that by no less laborious undertaking could the complex history of the study of his chosen subject be surveyed and made available as a stimulating guide to future investigation and interpretation.
