  • The Northman in Popular Historical Fiction
    ‘Strange companies’: The Northman in popular historical fiction Lisa Bennett, Flinders University, and Kim Wilkins, University of Queensland Abstract: This essay analyses how Bernard Cornwell and Giles Kristian, two authors of popular novels about Vikings, navigate historical research and dom- inant stereotypes about Vikings. The ubiquitous figure of the hyper-masculine and barbaric Viking may be at odds with the expectations that historical fiction will reflect a realistic portrait of past times. Cornwell and Kristian strike a bal- ance between dynamic drama and embodied historical detail to arrive at a fig- ure who reads as authentically of the Viking Age and persuasively of the desir- ing imagination of the present. Keywords: Vikings, Northmen, Bernard Cornwell, Giles Kristian, popular cul- ture Introduction Popular culture website tvtropes, a fan-based wiki that gathers and describes enduring tropes across media, offers an entry titled ‘Horny Vikings’ to define this type of Northman as: seldom seen without those spiffy horned helmets and are sometimes adorned with Pelts of the Barbarian. Vikings are always quite hairy, with long beards and longer Braids of Barbarism flying in the ocean breeze… Expect them to approach aboard intimidating, monster-headed long- ships, fierce men aboard fearsome boats (2018). While obviously not a scholarly source, tvtropes is a reliable repository for sum- marising prevailing stereotypes. Its cultural criticism tends more towards par- ody rather than nuance, and yet the tropes noted above do inform a generally held view about Vikings in popular culture. Nor is this view a recent one. In medieval Anglo-Saxon and Anglo-Norman chronicles, letters, myths and histo- ries written in Latin, Old English and Old Norse, Vikings are conceptualised as raiders who are both barbaric and awe-inspiring.

  • Christianity Under Fire
    University of Iceland School of Humanities Department of English Christianity Under Fire: An Analysis of the Treatment of Religion in Three Novels by Bernard Cornwell B.A Essay Kjartan Birgir Kjartansson Kt.: 260192-2059 Supervisor: Ingibjörg Ágústsdóttir May 2015 Abstract This essay discusses the various different ways Christianity affects relations between different characters as well as political and historical events in three historical novels by Bernard Cornwell. Christianity had a large part to play in medieval societies and was often the source of many conflicts, especially in the British Isles. The three novels covered in the essay take place during different periods of time in the medieval history of England, that is, the Arthurian period in The Winter King, the Viking invasions by the Pagan Danes in The Last Kingdom and the high-medieval period in Harlequin. The essay discusses both the historical background of each novel and how these novels depict the Church as it was during the period in question, as well as the Christian and non-Christian characters and religions in general. Furthermore, this essay discusses the troubling youth and life of Bernard Cornwell and how he has admitted to be prejudiced against all religions. Christianity is a religion which Cornwell treats with special contempt, especially when the faith is contrasted with the pagan or otherwise non-Christian faiths in his novels. The medieval Christians in these novels are extremely prejudiced towards their non-Christian counterparts, their adversaries in warfare, whether Christian or not, and even women, who are treated more badly than non-Christian women. Additionally, the Christians are usually seen as more corrupt, lazy, unjust, hypocritical, arrogant and bigoted than others.

EQUALITY AND AGENCY ..................................................................... 435 CONCLUSION ................................................................................................... 446 In Bolling v. Sharpe, the Supreme Court invalidated school segregation in the District of Columbia by inferring a broad “federal equal protection” principle from the Due Process Clause of the Fifth Amendment. It is often assumed that this principle is inconsistent with the Constitution’s original meaning and with “originalist” interpretation. This Article demonstrates, however, that a federal equal protection principle is not only consistent with the Constitution’s original meaning, but inherent in it. The Constitution was crafted as a fiduciary document of the kind that, under contemporaneous law, imposed on agents acting for more than one beneficiary – and on officials serving the general public – a well-established duty to serve all impartially. The Constitution, like other fiduciary instruments, imposes

  • And Women Took Over Arthuriana
    AND WOMEN TOOK OVER ARTHURIANA CARLOS A. SANZ MINGO Cardiff University Abstract: Women in Arthurian literature have traditionally followed two pat- terns: they are considered evil or they are thought to be the real cause for the fall of Camelot. These two visions have radically changed in Modern Literature and it is in Bernard Cornwell’s trilogy that these innovations are most obvious, as I intend to demonstrate in this paper. Keywords: history, feminine characters, modern Arthurian literature, medieval Arthurian literature, religion. 1. Introduction Whenever the word Arthuriana is mentioned, it conjures up a selec- tion of characters, mainly masculine, such as Arthur, Lancelot, Gawain, Merlin, Mordred or Uther Pendragon. However, the stories of Arthur and his men would not have developed were it not for the part women played: who bewitches Accolon in order to kill Arthur with his own sword? Who turns Sir Bercilak into a horrendous green giant? Who puts Merlin into a glass tower — or within a mountain, depending on the version — and keeps him there until the end of time? Who provokes, indirectly, the doom and fall of the Round Table? For better or for worse, the answer to these questions is a woman’s name. These characters have to atone in different ways. Morgan, Arthur’s half-sister and a horrible witch, is either killed or vanishes from the court. Guinevere becomes a nun in order to expiate her sins. Two more types of female characters can also be seen in Arthuriana. On the one hand, the dame who goes to court to ask for help from Arthur and his men and who, almost invariably, ends up falling in love or marrying the hero.

    Círculo Fluminense de Estudos Filológicos e Linguísticos UHTRED’S MEMORIES IN “SAXON STORIES”, BY BERNARD CORNWELL: RETHINKING THE HISTORY OF 9TH CENTURY ENGLAND Isabelle Maria Soares (UENP) [email protected] ABSTRACT The reading of the literary series “Saxon Stories” (2004), by British author Bernard Cornwell, inspires discussion regarding the relations between Scandinavians and Anglo-Saxons in British territory in the 9th century, as it presents an overview of this historical moment. From this perspective, the main goal of this article is to identify expressions of memory about the history of England, by means of the concepts appro- priated mainly by Pierre Nora (1993), Maurice Halbwachs (2015), Michael Pollak (1992), and Jacques Le Goff (2013). Thus, we aim to emphasize in the narrative of Uhtred, the protagonist of the work, memories that bring new perspectives on the history of England in the 9th century. For this purpose, we use only the first three books in the series as an object of study. Keywords: British Literature. Cultural memory. History of England. RESUMO A leitura da série literária “Saxon Stories” (2004), do autor britânico Bernard Cornwell, incita reflexões acerca das relações entre escandinavos e anglo-saxões no território britânico no século IX, pois apresenta um panorama desse momento histó- rico. A partir disso, este artigo visa identificar manifestações de memória a respeito da história da Inglaterra, sob a luz dos conceitos apropriados principalmente por Pierre Nora (1993), Maurice Halbwachs (2015), Michael Pollak (1992) e Jacques Le Goff (2013). Objetivamos, dessa forma, identificar na narrativa de Uhtred, protagonista da obra, memórias que trazem novas perspectivas acerca da história da Inglaterra no sé- culo IX.

Adding to library failed. Brilliant stories by a very gifted author. Born in poverty, he joined the army to escape jail and climbed the ranks by sheer brutal courage. First edition. So Sharpe must escape, and as a fugitive for both the English and French authorities find out who's behind the scheme that could cost him his life. It is to this desperate land that Arthur returns, a man at once utterly human and truly heroic: a man of honor, loyalty, and amazing valor; a man who loves Guinevere more passionately than he should; a man whose life is at once tragic and triumphant. Richard Sharpe. It's a strong story and it's quintessential Cornwell. The adaptation was basically faithful to the novel but lost many of the connections to Sharpe's Siege as a result of an original story, Sharpe's Mission , being placed between the adaptations: Instead of the duel with Bampfylde, Sharpe fights a similar duel with Colonel Wigram, the officer who later commands his court martial, for insulting him at Toulouse and Lucille's brother is not Lassan but Maillot, the officer in charge of Napoleon's treasure with their mother omitted entirely. A good rattling yarn, as are most of the Sharpe novels, but this one marches to a slightly different beat and tone.

Short Essay Questions. The author converged history with myth, bringing new life into the old tale with a fresh take upon Arthur. Eventually, his fractured kingdom is invaded by the Irish king of Lleyn, Diwrnach. Arthur and his army, carrying Gwydre's banner, travel the sea to Dumnonia but, before they can escape her, Nimue catches up with them. Although Guinevere admits that it wasn't what she wanted for herself and Arthur, she wanted to be with Arthur. While Excalibur had its fair share of tragedy to say the least, it was also complete with moments of bitter satisfaction, that softened the blow slightly, but not enough to stem the tears….

See details for additional description. I have not read "Devil" yet but have acquired, and have read, all of the earlier Sharpe's series. Cornwell is without peer when it comes to historical fiction of this age and time. The British against the French, Spanish, and India's formidable hordes. Sharpe is the lead in each story and the series captures his rise from a private to high officer ranks. Sharpe's romantic affairs are tastefully presented, but romance does never alter his quest for the battle and his vigorous pursuit of his foes. Sharpe's interplay with some of the other lead characters Cornwell develops, provides a personal touch most welcome in this story war time at its most furious. And I do not believe anyone can describe a battle, whether on land or sea, as Cornwell does. Sha rpe's Trafalgar is a striking example. Read full review. Good quick read and a bit of a departure from other Sharpe books.
