The Myth of Morgan la Fey by Kristina Pérez (review)

is to be hoped that it will replace outdated accounts in other sources (and online). My only real quibble remains the concept of Standard Medieval French, defined as ‘dialectally unmarked Medieval French as standardised by philologists and commonly used in histories of the language, grammar books, and in dictionary lemmata’ (p. 26n). An excerpt of Lanval is rewritten in this reconstructed variety in the appendix (p. 167). The concern is that there will be readers who miss the footnote (or fail to read it carefully enough) and, as a result, end up believing that there was such a thing as Standard Medieval French. Perhaps, like God, the fact that it did not exist was why philologists took it upon themselves to invent it — and it has it uses; but the designation still risks misleading the uninformed, who would in every other respect do well to read this manual assiduously.
