This is an important page, but it contains inaccuracies. For example, Micha's 8 volumes do not contain the cycle of 5 romances, but only the Lancelot Proper (3rd of the 5). And Lacy's volumes, listed as critical editions, are instead translations. Njl2 11:27, 5 June 2007 (UTC)

This does need a lot of work, sadly, over the whole spectrum. But while the NJL (hmm...:) ) translation should perhaps not be called a "scholarly edition", I'd like to note it's acceptible to use as a reference. It's the best English version I know of, and certainly the most comprehensive.--CĂșchullain t/c 18:52, 8 July 2007 (UTC)

Does anyone know what language the Vulgate Cycle was originally written in? (the Post-Vulgate Cycle page mentions French; is that true for the Vulgate as well?) VisibleInk 19:11, 22 August 2007 (UTC)

French. I can't believe it didn't say that before, thanks for pointing it out!--CĂșchullain t/c 20:57, 22 August 2007 (UTC)
