Answer:

B. The life of King Arthur

Step-by-step explanation:

Le Morte d'Arthur (The Death of Arthur) is a compilation and translation of existing tales about the legendary King Arthur, Guinevere, Lancelot, Merlin, and the Knights of the Round Table done by Thomas Malory and published in 1485. Malory compiled stories written down by unknown French authors (and a few English poems), translated them to Middle English prose, and organized them. Based on the title, we may think that the story focuses on Arthur's death, but, in fact, it tells about his life from his conception to his death. The book even includes the stories from before his birth and after his death. Arthur's death is covered by only one small section, despite the title.
