Abstract
Abstract:The enigmatic medieval Welsh tale Rhonabwy’s Dream depicts an oneiric immersion in the Arthurian world. As Rhonabwy travels backwards through time, his experiences dramatize the stakes of direct encounter with history. The narrative thus explores and critiques the causal relationships between past, present, and text in Arthurian literature. (SL)
