The Matter of Britain
THE MATTER OF BRITAIN: KING ARTHUR'S BATTLES I had rather myself be the historian of the Britons than nobody, although so many are to be found who might much more satisfactorily discharge the labour thus imposed on me; I humbly entreat my readers, whose ears I may offend by the inelegance of my words, that they will fulfil the wish of my seniors, and grant me the easy task of listening with candour to my history May, therefore, candour be shown where the inelegance of my words is insufficient, and may the truth of this history, which my rustic tongue has ventured, as a kind of plough, to trace out in furrows, lose none of its influence from that cause, in the ears of my hearers. For it is better to drink a wholesome draught of truth from a humble vessel, than poison mixed with honey from a golden goblet Nennius CONTENTS Chapter Introduction 1 The Kinship of the King 2 Arthur’s Battles 3 The River Glein 4 The River Dubglas 5 Bassas 6 Guinnion 7 Caledonian Wood 8 Loch Lomond 9 Portrush 10 Cwm Kerwyn 11 Caer Legion 12 Tribuit 13 Mount Agned 14 Mount Badon 15 Camlann Epilogue Appendices A Uther Pendragon B Arthwys, King of the Pennines C Arthur’s Pilgrimages D King Arthur’s Bones INTRODUCTION Cupbearer, fill these eager mead-horns, for I have a song to sing. Let us plunge helmet first into the Dark Ages, as the candle of Roman civilisation goes out over Europe, as an empire finally fell. The Britons, placid citizens after centuries of the Pax Romana, are suddenly assaulted on three sides; from the west the Irish, from the north the Picts & from across the North Sea the Anglo-Saxons. -
John Cowper Powys's Porius: a Reader's Companion
John Cowper Powys: Porius A Reader’s Companion Updated and Expanded Edition W. J. Keith April 2009 “Reader’s Companions” by Prof. W.J. Keith to other Powys works are available at: https://www.powys-society.org/Articles.html Preface The aim of this “Companion” is to provide background information that will enrich a reading of Powys’s novel/romance. It glosses Welsh, classical, biblical, and other allusions, identifies quotations, explains geographical and historical references, and offers any commentary that may throw light on the more complex aspects of the text. (When a quotation is involved, the passage is listed under the first word even if it is “a” or “the.”) It was first made available on the Internet and in booklet form in 2004, and has subsequently been updated and revised from time to time. The present version has been thoroughly reset and expanded. Numerous errors discovered in the intervening years have been corrected. All page-references are to Judith Bond and Morine Krissdóttir’s edition published by Overlook Duckworth in 2007, with those to Wilbur T. Albrecht’s 1994 edition from Colgate University Press following in square brackets. Since the latter contained many errors and inconsistencies, the words listed often appear there in somewhat different form. Moreover, because the editions are based on different copy-texts, some references appear only in one of the editions; when those occurring in only one version require separate annotation, they have been identified and glossed. References to other JCP books published during his lifetime will be either to the first editions or to reprints that reproduce the original pagination, with the following exceptions: Wolf Solent (London: Macdonald, 1961), Weymouth Sands (London: Macdonald, 1963), Maiden Castle (ed. -

GODDESS, KING, AND GRAIL: ASPECTS OF SOVEREIGNTY WITHIN THE EARLY MEDIEVAL HEROIC TRADITION OF THE BRITISH ISLES A Thesis Presented to The Graduate School of Clemson University In Partial Fulfillment Of the Requirements for the Degree Master of Arts English By Robert Scott Bevill July 2009 Accepted by: Dr. Barton Palmer, Committee Chair Dr. Susan Hilligoss Dr. Wayne Chapman ABSTRACT When studying the heroic tales and epics of medieval cultures, more questions about their origins and influences remain than answers. The search for sources for a single work, Beowulf, for example, can and has been examined within Germanic, Brittanic, Norse, and even Irish traditions. Scores of sources, parallels, and analogues have been found and analyzed, but so many possibilities may only serve to obfuscate the actual origins of the Beowulf poet’s myriad influences. However, the search for analogous works can build a stronger sense of context for certain motifs and greater themes within a large number of similar texts. -
Ti-Ie Theosophical Path
TI-IE THEOSOPHICAL PATH KATHERINE TINGLEY, EDITOR VOL. XX, NO. 5 MAY 1921 "THE Great and Peaceful Ones live regenerating the world like the coming of spring, and having crossed the ocean of embodied existence they help those who journey on the same path. Their desire is spontaneous: it is the natural tendency of great souls to remove the suffering of others."-- Viveka-Chuddmani THEOSOPHICAL KEYNOTES The writings of H. P. Blavatsky and W. Q. Judge contain so much that is applicable to present-day problems that I feel sure the members of the Universal Brotherhood and Theosophical Society and other readers of THE THEOSOPHICAL PATH will be glad of the opportuni(y of benefiting by their wise teachings. I trust soon to meet my readers through these pages again. KATHERINE TINGLEY, Editor· THE SECRET DOCTRINE BY H. P. BLAVATSKY1 · ..T is hardly necessary to remind the reader once more that QJ,)) the term "Divine Thought," like that of "Universal Mind, " . must not be regarded as even vaguely shadowing forth an � intellectual process akin to that exhibited by man. The ''Unconscious, " according to von Hartmann, arrived at the vast creative, or rather Evolutionary Plan, "by a clairvoyant wisdom superior to all consciousness," which in the Vedantic language would mean absolute Wisdom. Only those who realize how far Intuition soars above the tardy processes of ratiocinative thought can form the faintest conception of that absolute Wisdom which transcends the ideas of Time and Space. Mind, as we know it, is resolvable into states of consciousness, of varying duration, intensity, complexity, etc.-- all, in the ultimate, resting on sen sation, which is again Maya. -

Of course, I owe everything I am to my parents. Thank you for all your love and support. This is for you. 4 Summary Unnamed women figure prominently in many of the Medieval Welsh Prose tales, yet these women have yet to be analyzed in depth. This paper will analyze unnamed women in The Pedeir Keinc y Mabinogi in regards to a psychoanalytical framework and some historical context. Not all unnamed women will be studied, but I have paid special attention to witches, women of the court, and noble women in need of assistance. -

A Welsh Classical Dictionary
A WELSH CLASSICAL DICTIONARY CONMOR. According to Pierre Le Baud (d.1515) Comorus was Count of Léon (Histoire de Bretagne, 1638, p.65). He is also called Count of Poher with its centre at Carhaix (Nora K.Chadwick, Early Brittany, pp.221-2). In the Life of St.Hernin we are told that the saint settled as a hermit in Duault, near Carhaix, where he died and was buried. Conmor, Count of Poher, being impressed by a miracle, ordered a chapel to be erected over the saint's grave (LBS II.465 s.n. Ernin, and LBS III.282 s.n.Hoiernin). According to the seventh century Life of St.Samson (§53, where he is un-named) Conmor was an unjust and unprincipled stranger who had caused Ionas, the hereditary ruler [of Domnonée] to be put to death, so that all the country was in distress. Iudual, the son of Ionas, had been delivered into captivity. In the Life of St.Leonore we are told that Conmor seized power and married the widow of the dead king [Ionas] (wrongly called Righuel, see Riwal). Conmor suspected that his wife was plotting his death for the sake of her son's advancement. When she knew of his suspicions she sent Iudual to take sanctuary with St.Leonore. But hearing of Conmor's approach, Leonore sent Iudual off by sea and when Conmor arrived and demanded the surrender of Iudual, Leonore was able to tell him that he had already left and gone to sea to seek refuge with Childebert [king of Paris 511 - 558].
