"Studies on the Legend of the Holy Grail" by Alfred Trübner Nutt is a scholarly publication written in the late 19th century. This work examines the various forms and origins of the Holy Grail legend, with a strong emphasis on its connections to Celtic traditions and influences. The book serves as both a study of the Grail Romance cycle and an investigation into the historical, literary, and mythical aspects of the legend. The opening of the scholarly work introduces the author’s intent to explore the different iterations of the Grail legend and their relationships to one another. It begins with a dedication to J. F. Campbell, highlighting the significance of Celtic tradition in Nutt's interpretation. The introduction outlines the structure of the studies, noting that the work does not aim for exhaustiveness but rather focuses on specific aspects of the Grail narrative. Nutt emphasizes the challenges historians face in tracing the origins of the Grail stories, navigating through various manuscripts and forms of the legend, while preparing to delve into the particulars of significant texts that have shaped the legend's evolution.
