Los templarios de la Tabla Redonda

Manuel Fernández Muñoz travels through Troyes, Genoa, Brittany, Somerset, Occitania, Ethiopia, Israel, and other idyllic settings, tracing the footsteps of Chrétien de Troyes, Robert de Boron, and Wolfram von Eschenbach to discover the origins of the great Arthurian legends. Amidst castles, monasteries, sacred forests, and historic sites, he uncovers the connections between the Grail, the Knights Templar, the Ark of the Covenant, the true name of God, Christianity, and ancient Celtic traditions, revealing the real figures, relics, and locations that shaped some of the West's most celebrated myths. Written in an engaging and accessible style, this work distinguishes history from fiction without losing the magic that flows between them. Within these pages, you will discover why the Grail’s meaning shifts from one author to the next, who might have inspired the figure of Merlin, which relics fueled the legend of Excalibur, where the Ark of the Covenant might be found today, and which European sites still lay claim to being the true castle of the Fisher King. The manuscript you hold in your hands is no ordinary book; it is a manual of chivalry and the chronicle of a fascinating journey—one that ultimately reveals that the Grail may only be found by those who no longer need it.
