ESSAY ON: The Romance of Tristan and Iseult

Number of Pages 5

This research paper: (5 pp.) The theme of the age-old story of Tristan and Iseut is that of duty versus desire. The classic version involves a love triangle, one in which unplanned love occurs and challenges the existing love created by duty. This has been played out by Arthur, Guenevere, and Lancelot as well as Mark, Tristan and Iseult. Naturally the intensity of duty and desire must be equal to really add drama and poignancy to the mix. This discussion will examine Mathew Arnold's version of Tristan and Iseult (1852).
