    Malory, Sir Thomas d. 1471, English author of Morte d'Arthur. It is almost certain that he was Sir Thomas Malory of Newbold Revell, Warwickshire. Knighted in 1442, he served in the Parliament of 1445. He was evidently a violent, lawless individual who committed a series of crimes, including poaching, extortion, robbery, and murder. Most of his life from 1451 was spent in prison, and he probably did most of his writing there. Malory's original book was called The Book of King Arthur and His Noble Knights of the Round Table and was made up of eight romances that were more or less separate. William Caxton printed the work in 1485 and gave it the misleading title of Morte d'Arthur. The last medieval English work of the Arthurian legend , Malory's tales are supposedly based on an assortment of French prose romances. The Morte d'Arthur is noted for its excellent dramatic narrative and the beauty of its rhythmic and simple language. It is the standard source for later versions of the legend.

    MALLORIE
    SIR THOMAS MALORY " le morte darthur"
    Sir Thomas Malory (d. 1471?) Author of the most famous and influential
    prose version of the legends of King Arthur, about whom little personal
    information is known. The title, "Le Morte Darthur", is taken from the
    epilogue of William Caxton's landmark illustrated edition of 1485. The
    epilogue tells us that "this book was ended the ninth year of the reign of King
    Edward the Fourth (either 1469 or 1470), by Sir Thomas Maleore (one of
    the variant spellings of Malory), knight."
    "Le Morte Darthur" was written in English and consists of eight tales in 507
    chapters in 21 books, so arranged by Caxton, for clarity of understanding. It
    is the basis of most modern tellings of the Arthurian story and was the
    inspiration for Tennyson's "Idylls of the King."
    Early in the text of "Le Morte Darthur", the author refers to himself as a
    knight-prisoner. In reaction to this statement, it has been suggested that perhaps some or all of "Le Morte Darthur" was written while Malory was in

    Scholars have determined that there were at least six Thomas Malorys alive in the 1400s when Le Morte d'Arthur was written. Considerable evidence points to the likeliest author as one Sir Thomas Malory or Maleore of Newbold Revell in Warwickshire, who was born in the first quarter of the fifteenth century. A member of the gentry, he became a soldier in the service of Richard Beauchamp, Earl of Warwick, with whom he fought in the siege of Calais in 1436. In records of the period he is accused of various crimesincluding armed robbery, attempted murder, and rapeand he is said to have executed several dramatic escapes from prison.
    Several things about Malory seem indisputable. As in Arthur's time when post-Roman Britain was in a state of fierce tribal war, he lived in an age of great unrest. Europe was still recovering from the Black Plague and a century of war. In England, two powerful families fought for the throne. Although he may have been a scoundrel, Malory was also, it seems clear, a man of ideals who believed in courage and loyalty, and who mourned the passing of chivalry. Incarcerated for long periods, he had many hours to fill his imagination with French romances and tales of chivalry, volumes of which were readily at hand. It is thought that Le Morte d'Arthur was written during his imprisonment.

    http://website.lineone.net/~digitalcrafts/morris.htm
    Born in Walthamstow, Essex just at the beginning of the Victorian Age when the Industrial Revolution had taken its hold, William Morris enjoyed a somewhat privileged childhood. Like many young readers his age, he developed a strong preference for tales and romances of the Middle Ages. Chaucer's stories fascinated him as well as the narratives in Sir Thomas Malory's Le Morte d'Arthur . He also read the poetry of John Keats and Shelley, two prominent writers of the preceding Romantic Period, and, of course, Tennyson, the leading Victorian poet of the day who later earned the title of Poet Laureate in 1850. What do all these writers have in common to have had such an influence on Morris's development? The Canterbury Tales by Geoffrey Chaucer (d. 1400) presented a more realistic portrait of people in medieval society than the contemporary allegorical tales provided during his time. In allegory characters are named Patience, Conscience, Hope, Charity, and the like, who work their way from Evil toward Christian salvation. In Chaucer's Prologue to the Tales , characters named Harry Bailey, Roger, Huberd, Alice, John, and Madame Eglentyn, meet and tell stories on their annual pilgrimage to Canterbury. Chaucer decided not to use allegory in his tales (a stroke of sheer genius), leaving a memorable portrait of people as they really were. More important, though, Chaucer's

    http://www.eng.fju.edu.tw/English_Literature/englit_1/malory.htm
    Sir Thomas Malory Le Morte Darthur is undoubtedly the last definitive interpretation of the Arthurian myth before the dawn of the English Renaissance. Yet the identity of its author, Sir Thomas Malory, the knight prisoner, remains as elusive and as mysterious as the knights who inhabit his book. How can the extoller of knightly honor, courtly love and chivalric duty be himself accused of robbery, extortion, attempted murder and rape felonious acts which belie those noble sentiments expressed throughout the pages of the Morte? So the question arises who is the historical Sir Thomas Malory and how can we account for the massive discrepancy between the man and his work?
    Sir Thomas Malory of Newbold Revel in Warwickshire "was born into a gentry family that had lived for centuries in the English Midlands near the point where Warwickshire, Leicestershire, and Northamptonshire meet. His father, John Malory, was an esquire with land in all three counties, but was primarily a Warwickshire man, being twice sheriff, five times M.P. and for many years a justice of the peace for that county. John married Philippa Chetwynd... and they had at least three daughters, and one son, Thomas, who was probably born within a year either way of 1416" (Field 115).
    Of Sir Thomas Malory¡¦s early years, "almost nothing is known." As a young man of 23
