Tintagel: in the Footsteps of Rudolf Steiner
Tintagel: In the footsteps of Rudolf Steiner Dr John Paull john.paull[a]mail.com On his ﬁnal visit to Britain, Rudolf Steiner’s schedule of lecturing was hectic. He delivered three lectures a day during the Anthroposophical Society’s Summer School at Torquay (11-22 August 1924) - but that is another story. Steiner took one day out of that busy schedule to be a tourist for a day. The decision took him as far west as he ever ventured in his lifetime - to the west cost of Cornwall. Tintagel is the legendary home of King Arthur, Merlin, the sword Excalibur, the Lady of the Lake, the Knights of the Round Table, Sir Lancelot, Queen Guinevere, and the court of Camelot. Ashley (2010) dates the Arthurian period as between 400-600 AD but there is no extant documentation to distinguish between myth, legend, and veridical history. Midway through the Torquay Summer School, on Sunday August 17th, Rudolf Steiner declared “I want to go to King Arthur” (Eleanor Merry, 1956, in Villeneuve, 2004, p.1051). A cavalcade of three cars ventured forth from the southern beachside resort town of Torquay, across the verdant moors of Dartmoor, to the spectacularly positioned Tintagel, on the west coast of Cornwall. The journey took them through the centre of Dartmoor to Tavistock, then across to Boscastle, and down to Tintagel (B, C & D in Figure 1). Although Villeneuve (2004, p.1052) states that it was a “50-mile journey”, it is today a drive of 69 miles and of two and a quarter hours. Eleanor Merry and D.N.

Themes discussed include the dating of Palestinian amphorae in Britain, the extent of the settlement at Tintagel, tin as a motivation for Byzantine trade, the re-use of Roman-period artefacts, and ‘Anglo-Saxon’ artefacts on Western British sites. The central paradoxes of Late Antiquity: simultaneous conservatism and fluidity, continuity and innovation, are seen to illuminate ‘Dark Age’ Britain and offer new avenues for future research.

From Tintagel to Aachen: Richard of Cornwall and the Power of Place
1 From Tintagel to Aachen: Richard of Cornwall and the Power of Place David Rollason University ofDurham r: The theme of this volume is legendary rulers, and its principal subjects are the great Frankish emperor Charlemagne (768-814), whose life and reign gave rise to many legends, and the British king Arthur, who may have had a shadowy existence in the post-Roman period but who came to prominence through the legends which developed around him.l This paper examines, through the career of Richard of Cornwall (1209-72) which touched on th~m both, the way in which legends about these rulers contributed to the power of place at two very different sites, Tintagel in Cornwall and Aachen in Germany. Richard, who was the second son of King John of England and younger brother of King Henry III, was made earl of Cornwall in 1227, elected king of Germany, 'king of the Romans' that is, in January 1257, and crowned as such in May 1257. He was a very wealthy and politically active figure, deeply involved in the struggles between the king of England and his barons, as well as a crusader and an active participant in Continental affairs.' In May 1233, that is in the early part of his career as Earl of Cornwall, Richard purchased the 'island' of Tintagel, a promontory rather than a real island, on the Cornish coast.' The fact that the purchase included the 'castle of Richard' could be seen to support a previously-held theory that a castle had already been built on the promontory in the twelfth century; but archaeological and architectural evidence from

Tintagel – miejscowość w Wielkiej Brytanii ( Kornwalia ), w której znajduje się legendarny zamek – miejsce narodzin króla Artura. W materiale piękne zdjęcia oraz quiz TINTAGEL – KING ARTHUR'S LEGENDARY BIRTHPLACE Our destination today is the Tintagel Castle in South West England or rather what remains of this medieval fortification, described as the legendary birthplace of mythical King Arthur. We arrive at the village of Tintagel in North Cornwall. Our route leads along a valley, down to the Celtic Sea coast. With no ruins of a castle to be seen yet, but we are welcomed with this sign. A few steps further we enjoy a lovely view of the sea and the ruins. We buy tickets and finally we are allowed to enter the realm of legends. The inscription reads: High on the cliff edge ahead of you are the remains of the medieval castle built by Richard, Earl of Cornwall, between 1233-36. This castle was built at least 500 years after a real or fictitious ‘Arthur’ fought the Saxons away to the East in the 6th century. An ‘Arthur’ may never have come to Tintagel, but it was probable that at about that time Tintagel was the stronghold of the kings oi Cornwall. Whoever lived there, there is no doubt that they were powerful and wealthy. The discovery of thousands of pieces of Mediterranean pottery show that Tintagel was the centre of a trade in luxury goods unknown in the rest of Cornwall.

In Brief Literacy Lesson Ideas
TM Storytime Myths and Legends: The Lady of the Lake Teaching Resources The Lady of the Lake is a tale about the adventures of King Arthur. It is known as an Arthurian legend. IN BRIEF In the story, the wizard Merlin takes King Arthur to a lake, where he is given an enchanted sword by a magical lady. 1 LITERACY LESSON IDEAS Before you read this legend, ask pupils whether they have heard of King Arthur and Merlin. What do they know about these characters? Ask them to write a short paragraph. Have they heard of the sword Excalibur? What can they tell you about it? (You could complete this task before and after reading the story.) See our Lady of the Lake Word Wise Sheet for story-linked comprehension questions, word meanings and creative writing tasks. The Lady of the Lake isn’t a typical hero’s quest. Unlike the structure of many myths and legends, Arthur encounters the baddie at the beginning of the story and is beaten. This inspires him to go on a quest to get a new sword, which he gets very easily. Compare it with other myths from Storytime, such as: - Perseus and Medusa in Issue 1 - St George and the Dragon in Issue 2 - Odysseus and the Cyclops in Issue 18 - Hercules and the Lion in Issue 24 Use our Hero’s Quest Story Mountain Sheet to plot the storylines of one of these famous myths. Now draw a story mountain for The Lady of the Lake. Also compare this Arthurian legend to The Sword in the Stone from Storytime Issue 13 – two stories featuring King Arthur and swords.
