    Since the beginning of recorded history, people have been telling stories. These stories have often been grand tales of heroes that reflected the virtues of the time in which the hero lived. Starting in the Middle Ages, these stories started to focus on tales of knights, specifically King Arthur and his knights of the round table. The most prevalent virtue accounted for in these stories was that of chivalry. Chivalry is a somewhat contradictory trait clashing between “rudeness and exaggerated politeness” (Moelker and Kummel 292). One Arthurian legend that exemplifies the practice of chivalry is Sir Gawain and the Green Knight. This conflicting virtue worked during this time because the Middle Ages themselves were full of contradictory beliefs. While most tales of knightly adventure and chivalry…

    The legend of King Arthur can be traced as far back as the fourth and fifth centuries. But the earliest tales of Arthur were almost nothing like they are today. There were no wandering minstrels, or ladies–in–waiting, or knights in shining armor taking on bold quests to defend their ladies. Instead, there were tales of giants, and magic cups, and invaders from a foreign land. In some ancient versions of the legend, Arthur is a hero whose deeds are comparable to those of Hercules. In more modern versions, he is merely a king whose knights are the real heroes of the story. The earliest tales of Arthur were spread largely by word of mouth, and very few written accounts survive. Of the ones that do, we do not have the original documents, only copies…

    Has one ever thought about the idea of kings? The first thing that comes to mind is pushy, rough , and mean. The legendary "King Arthur" was far from that. He was known to be a kind, outgoing, helpful type King, no matter what he was going through. Well that was the legendary King Arthur, as some know him as, a leader and a warrior. He was out going but wasn't as appealing as the legend makes him seem. King Arthur was one of the greatest heroes in the adventure of literature which is shown through his tough time as a child, his power as a king, and his death.…

    Welcome fellow royal subjects, family, and friends. We all are here for the same reason, to mourn over the loss of our dearest king, King Arthur. The world the past few days has seem like a whole new experience without him around. I have noticed less smiles on people’s faces, the rainy days have seemed longer, and the sun seems to shine less bright. Our beloved king was a kind sir who cared about each and every one of you. Where ever his soul may be now, we should acknowledge that he’s in a better place because we know he’s released from all the pain he had suffered from.…
