This book contains the greatest tales about Siegfried, Sid, Beowulf, Lohengrin, Robert the Devil, Doctor Faustus and other heroes of medieval Europe. Legends about powerful wizards, terrible monsters, great battles and soul-saving love, the motives of which permeate the entire European culture, were created by the popular imagination in the XNUMXth–XNUMXth centuries. Each of the heroes of these legends returned to readers hundreds and thousands of times, appearing in each century in a new incarnation: we find their echoes in medieval chivalric novels and in the works of modern science fiction writers - from “Don Quixote "to "The Master and Margarita" and modern series like "The Witcher" and "Games of Thrones". The publication is illustrated by the works of outstanding masters of book graphics - Warwick Goble, Harold Nelson, William Heath Robinson, Arthur Rackham, Joseph Skelton, Byam Shaw - as well as works of great European painters of the XNUMXth–XNUMXth centuries.
