Celtic Ireland with Juilene Osborne-McKnight Home Take a Course Novel Excerpt Biography ... Guest Book Arthurian mythology has many of its roots in the Celtic mythology which preceded it. The knights of the "round table" and their code of honor may very well have drawn some inspiration from the Irish tales of the Fenian warriors of the 3rd century with their difficult entrance tests and demanding code of behavior. Thomas Malory's medieval overlay of the stories disguises what was originally a post-Roman warrior society being attacked from the outside by Saxon invaders. Whichever version of the Arthurian myth inspires you, the real historical Arthur, the Roman/Briton/Celtic/Welsh warlord, must have had amazing personal characteristics to have inspired the diverse and warring tribes of the times to unite against the invading Saxons. Moreover, because the myth has persisted even unto our day, something in Arthur's story and behavior (whether in its medieval version or in its older Celtic version) must certainly appeal to something in us. For my students who wish to read more about Arthur, I have appended a list of recommended fiction to this list. For those who wish to follow the electronic path to Arthur, a variety of websites with brief summaries are listed below. For our Texas students of English teacher Tracy Scholz, a great assignment would be to look at all the differences among the 12th century Arthur of Geoffrey of Monmouth, the 15th century Arthur of Thomas Malory and the 6th century Roman/Celtic historical Arthur.

The chief female characters in Arthurian legend are Guinevere, Morgan Le Fay, Elaine: Lady of Shallot, The Lady of the Lake, Nimue, and Isolde/Iseult. All of these women are flawed, they are tragic heroines, whether by deed, circumstance or historical rendering. There are many conflicting stories of how she met her end, but this is the most famous. Some scholars suggest that she is a mythological figure, representing the sovreignty of Britain, over which contenders fight. Another popular aspect to her story is that she was succeptible to kidnapping, be it by Meleagance who was insane with love for her, or Lancelot. In the "Mabinogian", Guinevere had a sister named Gwenhwyvach, in French romance she had an identical half sister who took her place for a while, and in the German "Diu Crone", she had a brother Gotegrin.

It is argued in this thesis that the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries were not a kind of Arthurian 'Dark Ages.' Instead, because Arthurian mythology possessed the openendedness necessary to accommodate a number of diverse interests and political agendas, it remained possible to appropriate it for political purposes and incorporate it into most of the literary genres of the period. The dramatic genres studied include the traditional seasonal revelry of the Inns of Court, progress entertainments and civic pageantry, as well as the more novel court masques and commercial stage plays. Also included are additional examples from non-literary documents. The use of Arthurian material is traced in dramatic works and entertainments from the reign of Henry VII to that of James I. The final section of my thesis examines the continued use of Arthurian motifs by such writers as Ben Jonson, Thomas Middleton and William Rowley, while particular attention is paid to the anonymous play

14. FatherOak's Druidism practices. arthurian mythology contains many distinctly ancient celticconcepts but is a new and unique mythology as well. Misty http://www.fatheroak.com/resource6.html

Romantic Druidism Arthurian Druidism It is worth noting that the sword called Excaliber may have come from legends surrounding a real sword. The Celts were iron-workers, ahead of most other contemporary cultures. Iron-age technology helped the Celts defeat the Dannans (who worked bronze). Around Arthurian times, it was discovered that nickel-iron from meteorites could be used to create stainless steel, and swords layered with this metal would never bend, scratch, break, nor rust. Weapons like that would have been seen as magical, and would have developed names and reputations independantly. An important concept in Arthurian Druidism is the concept of the sacred king. Arthur is a sacred king because he was chosen by God to rule, by virtue of his birth and the wisdom he developed. The story of the Fischer King is another that demonstrates the connection between kings and God, who is the Earth Mother, for he is suffering from the unhealable wound while at the same time his territory is barren and infertile, as if wounded just like him. The Grail is a symbol of divinity, of feminine divinity in particular, and though it is said to be the cup of Christ most Arthurian druids agree that it is the Earth Goddess, which is why its wine can be drunk by only those who are connected to her, like the sacred king, and the chaste knight who reserves his love only for her. Perhaps these concepts are a remnant of the old ritual of the marriage of kings to the land.

De Bellis Fantasticus - Reviews Roger Pimlott writes: ... I now have a book entitled De Bellis Fantasticus (My prize to myself for coming last), subtitled Here Be Dragons- a DBM supplement. Coming from Keep Wargames AND it has a colour cover (Barbarian and Dragon - what else could it be?) AND it seemed to be quite readable inside. Contains extensions to DBM for Flyers, Behemoths, Humanoid, Undead (a new classification alongside S,F,O,I,X), the addition of heroes and Magi, as well as army lists for various generic fantasy lists, (ie imperial human, city state human, barbarian human, High elf, wood elf, dark elf, goblinoid, undead), various mythologies (roughly based off a DBM list with added components of Fantasy). Looks fun, we are currently trying to work out which mythology lists we can use easily to have a try. I might have to dig out the Lord of the Rings lists that were posted sometime back. Nick Meredith writes: De Bellis Fantasticus - Here there Be Dragons - was on sale at Roll Call at Dunstable. It is subtitled as "A DBM Supplement" and that is exactly what it is - DBM 2.0 (or later) is assumed, although it could be played with earlier versions by tweaking points values. Interestingly, it is published by Keep Wargaming, rather than WRG. Keep Wargaming is run by Paul Bailey, who is also the publishing end of WRG, who publish the other DB* rules sets. The rules have been written by 2 members of the Ilford wargaming club, and have been seen in use on a large demonstration game on the UK circuit in thee last year.

18. Linder Oct 2000 Those of you who are familiar with the arthurian mythology will recall that a majortheme of the tradition is that “the king and the land are one” implying http://www.phenomenews.com/archives/oct2000/linder.html

Applying the Arthurian Legends by Linda Linder During the month of August, I was blessed with the opportunity to spend twenty days in England, Wales and Scotland. For a long while I’ve been extremely interested in the Arthurian/Grail legends, so when I found out about Jean Houston’s “Quest for the Grail” trip this past spring, I quickly and with purpose chose to participate. One of the insights (among almost too many to count) that the trip has provided me with is the understanding that the Arthurian/Grail mythology is tremendously deep and broad, with foundations in Celtic, Gaelic, Roman and other Anglo-Saxon traditions. And, since I am not an expert on the history and roots of this myth system, I will speak in this article of how the legend and one of the characters can fit into our own personal myths, providing us with yet more, complimentary frameworks from which to view our life, our history and our purpose and gain even more clarity. The Arthurian Legend is replete with archetype to explore and patterns of the hero’s adventure to discover. John Boorman’s film Excalibur is an excellent entry into this legend and it is available to rent. Also, there are many websites that explore this mythology and are a good, initial resource for gaining a basic understanding of the Arthurian legend. A site that explores the Excalibur film is www.dandalf.com/dandalf/excaliburvideo.html.
