| | Holy Grail - discovered at last? |
 | | The Holy Grail is one of the most difficult objects to discuss because its nature, meaning and purpose vary from writer to writer and from time to time. |
 | | The Grail, Holy Grail, Greal, Graal, etc. is the name given to a legendary sacred vessel, variously identified with the chalice of the Eucharist or the dish of the Pascal lamb, and the theme of a famous medieval cycle of romance. |
 | | The fully developed Grail legend was later on still further connected with other legends, as in Wolfram's poem with that of Lohengrim, the swan-knight, and also with that of Prestor John, the fabled Christian monarch of the East. |
