a translation of the Prose Lancelot. The Italian Vita de Merlino con le suo Prophetie also known as Historia di Merlino (1379) was losely adapted from the Vulgate Merlin. The cycle's elements and characters have been also incorporated into various other works in France, such as Les Prophecies de Mérlin and Palamedes, and elsewhere. Some episodes from the Vulgate Cycle have been adapted into the Third and Fourth Continuations of Chrétien's unfinished Perceval, the Story of the Grail. Other legacy can be found in the many so-called "pseudo-Arthurian" works in Spain and Portugal. Modern editions and translations Oskar Sommer H. Oskar Sommer published the entire original French text of the Vulgate Cycle in seven volumes in the years 1908–1916. Sommer's has been the only complete cycle published as of 2004. The base text used was the British Library Add MS 10292–10294. It is however not a critical edition, but a composite text, where variant readings from alternate manuscripts are unreliably demarcated using square brackets. Sommer, H. Oskar. (ed.).
