    The Character Model in Le Morte Darthur Anat Koplowitz-Breier ([email protected]) BAR-ILAN UNIVERSITY (RAMAT-GAN) Resumen Palabras clave Los personajes de La muerte de Arturo, La muerte de Arturo de Sir Thomas Malory, no se ajustan a la Malory definición estándar típica de los Caracterización personajes del romance. De hecho, Tipo pueden ser ubicados en una especie de Modelo de personaje estado transitorio que ha sido La dama denominado modelo de personaje. Tras La mujer con poderes mágicos dilucidar la naturaleza de tal concepto, este artículo procede a investigar dos modelos relativos a mujeres en La Muerte de Arturo: «La Dama» y «La Mujer con Poderes Mágicos». Abstract Key words The characters in Sir Thomas ’ Le Morte Darthur La Morte ’ do not conform to Malory the standard definition of Romance Characterization personae. In fact, they can be placed in Type a kind of transitional stage which has ’Model been called a ’ Model. After The Lady elucidating the nature of such a The Woman with Magical Power concept, this paper goes on to investigate two ’ Models of women in the Le Morte Darthur: «The Lady» and «The Woman with Magical AnMal Electrónica 25 (2008) Powers». ISSN 1697-4239 In the memory of my beloved teacher Prof. Ruth Reichelberg, who taught me what it means to be an academic person and a true Character Sir Thomas Malory's Morte is a mixture of at least two genres, Romance and Chronicle (Pochoda 1971). As McCarthy writes, his style is not of one piece: «’ matière is the matière of romance, but the sens, the ‘’ is perhaps not» (1988: 148).

Uaunton BARNICOTT &- PEARCE, ATHEN^UM PRESS 1907 BARNICOTT AND PEARCE PRINTERS Preface. T is usual to write something as a preface, and this generally appears to be to make some excuse for having written at all. In a pre- face to Tom Toole and his Friends — a very interesting book published a few years ago, by Mrs. Henry Sandford, in which the poets Coleridge and Wordsworth, together with the Wedgwoods and many other eminent men of that day figure,—the author says, on one occasion, when surrounded by old letters, note books, etc., an old and faithful servant remon- " " strated with her thus : And what for ? she " demanded very emphatically. There's many a hundred dozen books already as nobody ever reads." Her hook certainly justified her efforts, and needed no excuse. But what shall I say of this } What for do 1 launch this little book, which only refers to the parish ot Mylor ^ vi Preface. The great majority of us are convinced that the county of our birth is the best part of Eng- land, and if we are folk country-born, that our parish is the most favoured spot in it. With something of this idea prompting me, I have en- deavoured to look up all available information and documents, and elaborate such by personal recollections and by reference to authorities.

    Isles of Scilly Naturetrek Tour Report 14 - 21 September 2019 Porthcressa and the Garrison Red Squirrel Grey Seals Birdwatching on Peninnis Head Report & Images by Andrew Cleave Naturetrek Mingledown Barn Wolf's Lane Chawton Alton Hampshire GU34 3HJ UK T: +44 (0)1962 733051 E: [email protected] W: www.naturetrek.co.uk Tour Report Isles of Scilly Tour participants: Andrew Cleave (leader) plus 12 Naturetrek clients Summary Our early-autumn week on the Isles of Scilly was timed to coincide with the bird migration which is easily observed on the islands. Our crossings to and from Scilly on Scillonian III enabled us to see seabirds in their natural habitat, and the many boat trips we took during the week gave us close views of plenty of the resident and migrant birds which were feeding and sheltering closer to shore. We had long walks on all of the inhabited islands and as well as birds, managed to see some marine mammals, many rare plants and some interesting intertidal marine life. Informative evening lectures by resident experts were well received and we also sampled lovely food in many of the pubs and cafés on the islands. Our waterfront accommodation in Schooners Hotel was very comfortable and ideally placed for access to the harbour and Hugh Town. Day 1 Saturday 14th September We began our trip in Penzance harbour where we boarded Scillonian III for the crossing to Scilly. Conditions were fine for the crossing and those of us up on deck had good views of seabirds, including Gannets, Fulmars and winter-plumage auks as we followed the Cornish coast and then headed out into the Atlantic.

There are picturesque harbours and grand country houses set in vast acreages. There are impressive landmarks from the past such as Tintagel Castle, St Michael’s Mount and more standing stones and Neolithic sites than you can shake a stick at. They exist happily alongside the present day futuristic domes of Eden, the stately grey bulk of Tate St Ives, old Mine chimneys (sensibly bestowed with World Heritage status) and the spoil heaps of the clay pits near St Austell. 35 BEST OF CORNWALL 2020 However there is more to Cornwall’s appeal than It was clear that luck landmarks. It is the geographical distance to the rest of was needed. Fortunately, the England; the quirk of geology which makes Cornwall Victorian age was coming somewhat longer than it is wide.

She is a strong, energetic spinster of about 28 years of age, tanned and masculine in expression …” (Aurousseau, 1968). Gideon Mantell, a 19th century British palaeontologist, made a less flattering remark when he wrote in his journal, “… sallied out in quest of Mary An- ning, the geological lioness … we found her in a little dirt shop with hundreds of specimens piled around her in the greatest disorder. She, the presiding Deity, a prim, pedantic vinegar looking female; shred, and rather satirical in her conversation” (Curwin, 1940).

    Access Statement for The Minack Theatre & Visitor Centre Introduction The Minack Theatre & Visitor Centre is located on the cliffside near Porthcurno in West Cornwall. The Minack is open all year for visitors, and presents performances from Easter to the end of September. Despite the location, we strive to make our facilities as accessible as practically possible. We can accommodate up to 14 people in wheelchairs (depending on the size of the chairs) to watch performances, our exhibition centre, shop and cafe are all accessible to wheelchairs, and we have an induction loop within the theatre for the hard of hearing. Pre-Arrival • A clearly worded brochure is available describing the main facilities, directions, opening times, public transport and cycle access via roads. The brochure includes our contact telephone number, email and web address. The brochure is widely distributed in the area. • The information is repeated on our web site. • The Minack is accessible by car - 8 miles from Penzance, just off the B3315. Leave Penzance on the A30 towards Lands End and follow the brown tourist signs to turn onto the B3315 at Catchall.

  • The Book of Quests
    THE BOOK OF QUESTS uests are the driving force in the life of every noble Knight. So it should Qbe no surprise to find Quests at the very heart of Shadows over Camelot. While the content of the Rules Booklet should be familiar to every aspiring Knight, the Book of Quests is primarily a reference, written for inquisitive Knights in search of insight, or the scheming Traitor looking for a lethal edge. In the back of this book you will find two appendices. The first, unearthed from , old manuscripts, offers a glimpse of each Knight s personality. The second is a detailed manifest of each card used in the game. In this booklet, page numbers given in reference point to the corresponding entries in the Rules booklet, unless indicated otherwise. nnnnnnnnnn THE QUESTS nnnnnnnnnn There are several “Standard” Quests in Camelot’s immediate vicinity: N The Tournament against the Black Knight N The Quest for Lancelot N The Dragon’s Quest N The Quest for Excalibur N The Quest for the Holy Grail N The Pict and Saxon Wars each with its own entry in the Book of Quests. For each Quest won or lost, new Swords are laid onto the Round Table. As the game progresses, the Swords show which side currently has the advantage. There are also two “Special” Quests within Camelot proper, where a defeat spells immediate doom for the Loyal Knights: • The Siege of Camelot, which is lost if 12 Siege Engines ever surround Camelot; • and The Quest of the Round Table, where the outcome of the game is decided in favor of whichever color Swords have the majority, once 12 or more have been laid down.
