Arthurian chivalric romance stands among some of the most well-known and enduring medieval literary pieces, appearing as a staple of Renaissance medievalism, Victorian medievalism, the work of pre-Raphaelites, and in modern pop culture, as in programs like Merlin. The tropes of Arthurian chivalric romance remain major identifiers of the Middle Ages. Even other major medieval texts still largely known and commonly studied in schools and universities today incorporate elements of the Arthurian tradition, as in The Canterbury Tales by Geoffrey Chaucer, or the wider chivalric tradition, as in the lais of Marie de France. The fictional worlds encompassed by medieval literature contain many legendary creatures, prophesied events, and magical items which give color and memorable character to these many tales.

King Arthur was a legendary ruler of Britain whose life and deeds became the basis for a collection of tales known as the Arthurian legends. As the leading figure in British mythology, King Arthur is a national hero and a symbol of Britain's heroic heritage. But his appeal is not limited to Britain. The Arthurian story—with its elements of mystery, magic, love, war, adventure, betrayal, and fate—has touched the popular imagination and has become part of the world's shared mythology. The Celts blended stories of the warrior Arthur with those of much older mythological characters, such as Gwydion (pronounced GWID-yon), a Welsh priest-king. Old Welsh tales and poems place Arthur in traditional Celtic legends, including a hunt for an enchanted wild pig and a search for a magic cauldron, or kettle. In addition, Arthur is surrounded by a band of loyal followers who greatly resemble the disciples of Finn , the legendary Irish hero.

  • Magic As Gendered Knowledge in Merlin's Rise and Fall: a Discourse
    NCUE Journal of Humanities Vol. 9, pp. 83-100 March 2014 Magic as Gendered Knowledge in Merlin’s Rise and Fall: A Discourse on Male Homosocial Bonding Ying-hsiu Lu点 Abstract The fictional character, ‘Merlin’, has been widely accepted as an icon of “wisdom” in Western culture. In Malory’s Le Morte D’Arthur, the representation of Merlin’s intellect is especially manifested in political foresight and acumen. Merlin's intellectual masculinity is potent enough to be mystified as magic. In Malory, magic is a significant factor in the valorization and emasculation of Merlin within the economy of male bonding. Merlin is initially portrayed as a positive magician whose magic is discursively moralized and gendered as masculine. Through his supernatural prowess, the divided Britain is united and Arthur’s court of chivalry is fostered. Merlin’s magic also contributes to enact and cement bonds among Arthurian knights. As the narrative progresses, however, Merlin is feminized. Despite that Merlin’s magic functions as a positive force in the Arthurian male homosocial realm, it excludes Merlin from the Arthurian economy of male bonding. Further, in his pursuit of Nimue, Merlin’s magic is gendered feminine because he abuses his magical knowledge as currency to buy Nimue’s virginity. Merlin fails to hold himself to the high standard required of a positive magician. He is feminized and punished by “shameful death” at the hands of Nimue. Viewed through the lens of male homosociality, Merlin’s death is a result of the paradoxical functioning of male homosocial bonding, which occurs when the demands of heterosexual love clash with those of male homosocial bonds and obligations.

  • Aleksandra Mrówka Jagiellonian University
    MRÓWKA The Comic Image of the Courtly Love Ideals in Le Morte D’Arthur Aleksandra Mrówka Jagiellonian University The Comic Image of the Courtly Love Ideals in Le Morte D’Arthur by Sir Thomas Malory The Arthurian legends have fascinated and inspired people for ages. Le Morte D’Arthur by Sir Thomas Malory is one of the best compilations of the stories about King Arthur and his peers. This romance deals with the enchanting world of knightly rituals and the ideals of the chivalric code. It is not a typical romance blindly glorifying the medieval world, though. Written in the time when these ideals are passing, the prose is dominated on the one hand, by melancholy and sentiment, but on the other, by irony and ambiguity. Malory seems to question the chivalric code through inconsistencies of his characters’ behaviour, and absurdity of some situations they are involved in. The paper will focus on the ambivalent and comic picture of the courtly love ideals in Malory’s prose. The main source of failure of some of the Arthurian knights in this aspect of knightly life is the clash between the real chivalric practice and the imagined ideals they pursue. key words: courtly love, Malory, Arthur, knight, satire. Le Morte D’Arthur by Sir Thomas Malory (c. 1405–1471) is a romance dealing with the world of knightly customs and rituals, as well as the great ideals of the chivalric code. The main themes Malory explores are love and hate, nobility and villainy, and all this is mingled with a pinch of magic and mystery.

  • Gendered Magic and Arthurian Sovereignty
    GENDERED MAGIC AND ARTHURIAN SOVEREIGNTY BY ERIN CHANDLER DISSERTATION Submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in English in the Graduate College of the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, 2018 Urbana, Illinois Doctoral Committee: Associate Professor Robert W. Barrett, Chair Associate Professor Renée R. Trilling Professor Martin Camargo Professor Emerita Karen Fresco ABSTRACT In presenting a mythical establishment of British and English nationhood that is one of the most popular traditions of the medieval period, the legends of King Arthur are particularly suited to a study of the role of the supernatural in the establishment and maintenance of sovereignty in medieval romance. My dissertation, “Gendered Magic and Arthurian Sovereignty,” argues that the supernatural figures within the Arthurian tradition interact with the sovereign in a way which is determined by and mediated through issues of gender. My project surveys the largely unexplored overlap between these the study of the ties between the monstrous and national identity in medieval literature and the study of women in Arthuriana. In the insular Arthurian tradition, women take on two conflicting roles, safeguarding a dynastic succession, as the sovereign does, even as they threaten that very succession through outsized desire, as the tradition’s monsters do. My project articulates how Giorgio Agamben’s concepts of homo sacer and the sovereign exception are particularly suited to the gendered context of a nation-building and nation-defining medieval literature. According to Agamben, the sovereign’s power exists in his ability to place the figure he calls homo sacer in a state of exception from the law, in which he may be legally killed in order to confirm the sovereign’s rule.
