Elsewhere, Paul Stevens has shown the extent to which Milton was in a similar predicament, wanting to find in England’s history a subject worthy of epic, but torn between the rigorous revisionism of the likes of Camden and Selden and ‘the patriotic [tradition] mediated through Spenser, Shakespeare, and Drayton’ (Stevens 2012: 157). Between Thomas Malory’s Morte Darthur, completed by 1470, and published by Caxton – with carefully qualified scepticism about Arthur’s existence – in 1485, and Milton’s History of Britain (1670), we can follow the fortunes of Arthur as a figure contested and celebrated in equal measure.

  • Iknights 2021 Background Guide
    iMUNC 2021 Background Guide iKnights Chair: Kate Montano Crisis Director: Elly Tuffey Saturday, April 10 | NYC iSchool Letters From The Dias Hello Delegates, My name is Kate Montano, and I am super excited to be the chair for iKnights! I joined Model UN at the beginning of my freshman year at iSchool and am now a Junior. This is my first time chairing for iMUNC-- something that I’m excited (and nervous) for. At iSchool, Model UN is a pretty popular club so I thought I would try it out. When I began Model UN, I honestly had no idea how to conduct myself. I was incredibly intimidated by my more experienced peers, and I hardly participated. After lots of practice and lots of learning though, I found my voice and really began to love Model UN. Something that I appreciate about Model UN is the innumerable ways in which a delegate can act or lead the conference; it can start out really serious, but can also be really silly or have many unexpected endings. Model UN also intensified my love for my school; the iSchool never puts pressure on the club to be overly formal or serious. During my first conferences, I was always so worried about saying or doing something that was incorrect, but I’ve learned that you really can’t do anything incorrect in Model UN because making choices is a part of the fun. Be creative with your characters and the way you portray them-- it's all up to you! This committee in particular is based on a myth, so you really can’t go wrong with it.

If you know anything about King Arthur, why did you learn about King Arthur? If you don’t know anything, what can you guess King Arthur, Camelot, or Knights. A LEGEND is a story told about extraordinary deeds that has been told and retold for generations among a group of people. Legends are thought to have a historical basis, but may also contain elements of magic and myth. MYTH: a story that a particular culture believes to be true, using the supernatural to interpret natural events & to explain the nature of the universe and humanity. An ARCHETYPE is a reoccurring character type, setting, or action that is recognizable across literature and cultures that elicits a certain feeling or reaction from the reader.

Modern filmmakers have added to this legacy. Though audiences have enjoyed various contemporary film adaptations of these medieval romances, several essential elements are lost while translating the works to screen. This paper identifies a central motif in each work—King Arthur’s Round Table and Isolt’s love potion— that shapes the subsequent love triangle, and by extension, the representation and motivation of honor. While tracing the continued appearance of such components and their importance in the text sources of Geoffrey of Monmouth, Wace, Chrétien de Troyes, Thomas Malory, Gottfried von Strassburg, and Joseph Bédier, this paper will then discuss how each is manipulated by modern filmmakers and the lasting consequences on the legends as a result of such changes.

  • King Arthur Script
    King Arthur Transcript Taken from the Director’s Cut with Notes about Changes from the Theatrical Release SCENE 1 Lancelot (voiceover): By 300 AD, the Roman Empire extended from Arabia to Britain. But they wanted more. More land. More peoples loyal and subservient to Rome. But no people so important as the powerful Sarmatians to the east. Thousands died on that field. And when the smoke cleared on the fourth day, the only Sarmatian soldiers left alive were members of the decimated but legendary cavalry. The Romans, impressed by their bravery and horsemanship, spared their lives. (on screen) 452 AD Lancelot (voiceover, during flashback): In exchange, these warriors were incorporated into the Roman military. Better they had died that day. Young Lancelot: Father. They are here. Lancelot (voiceover): For the second part of the bargain they struck indebted not only themselves... Father: The day has come. Lancelot (voiceover): ...but also their sons, and their sons, and so on, to serve the empire as knights. I was such a son. Lancelot’s father: There is a legend that fallen knights return as great horses. He has seen what awaits you, and he will protect you. Lancelot’s sister: Lancelot! Lancelot! Lancelot. Young Lancelot: Don't be afraid. I will return. Young Lancelot: How long shall we be gone? Roman captain: 15 years, not including the months it'll take to get to your post. Villagers: Lancelot! Rus! Rus! Lancelot (voiceover): Our post was Britain--or at least the southern half, for the land was divided by a 73-mile wall built three centuries before us to protect the empire from the native fighters of the north.

Ioan Gruffudd - Lancelot Stellan Skarsgård - Cerdic Mads Mikkelsen - Tristan Til Schweiger -Cynric Joel Edgerton - Gawain Sean Gilder - Jols Hugh Dancy - Galahad Pat Kinevane - Horton Ray Winstone - Bors Ivano Marescotti -Bishop Germanus Ray Stevenson - Dagonet Ken Stott - Marius Keira Knightley - Guinevere the story unfolds … Arthur, also known as Artorius Castus (Clive Owen), is portrayed as a Roman cavalry officer and commander, the son of a Roman father and a Celtic mother, who leads a military force of Sarmatian cavalry in Britain at the close of the Roman occupation in 467 A.D. He and his men guard Hadrian's Wall against the "Woads," a Celtic people who resist Roman rule, led by their mysterious leader Merlin. As the film starts, Arthur and his remaining men Lancelot (whose voiceover is heard at the beginning and end), Bors, Tristan, Gawain, Galahad and Dagonet–are expecting discharge from the service of the Empire after faithfully serving for 15 years (Lancelot's entry into service as a youth in 452 A.D. is depicted at the very beginning of the film). However, they are dispatched on a final and possibly suicidal mission to rescue an important Roman family, which includes the Pope's godson, from impending capture by the invading Saxons. The knights are charged with this rescue because Rome is retiring from Britain, now considered an indefensible outpost. In the course of this mission, Arthur encounters and rescues a Woadish princess, Guinevere (Keira Knightley), from the imprisonment and torture by the Roman citizen he is charged with rescuing.

  • Through Casting in King Arthur and the Last Legion*
    On second thoughts, let’s not go to Camelot: situating the ‘historical Arthur’ through casting in King Arthur and The Last Legion* Tony Keen Abstract. Hollywood produced two major Arthurian movies in the mid-2000s, King Arthur (Antoine Fuqua, 2004) and The Last Legion (Doug Lefler, 2007), even though the latter only introduces Arthur in the final scene. Both choose to place their narratives within the ‘historical Arthur’ genre, rejecting the quasi- medieval setting used by Excalibur (John Boorman, 1981), and later the TV series Merlin (UK, 2008– present), and instead placing the story in the context of the end of Roman Britain and the collapse of Roman rule in the west. They thus come within the interests of this conference. This paper is concerned with the ways in which the two movies characterise post-Roman Britain, and in particular, how they use the casting of their lead actor to underline their respective characterizations. King Arthur presents a soldier’s-eye view of the world, and is largely anti-authority (in the shape of the Pope’s representative Germanus). Arthur is a man whose first loyalty is to his men; to this end, the movie casts Clive Owen, known for working class roles in the TV series Chancer (UK, 1990–1991), Croupier (Mike Hodges, 1998) and Gosford Park (Robert Altman, 2001), as Arthur, though supporting him with more upper class figures such as Ioan Gruffudd and Joel Edgerton as Lancelot and Galahad. The Last Legion’s hero, Aurelius, is, in contrast, a man whose first loyalty is to his emperor.

While the most advanced technological means to photograph and reproduce this document have been used, the quality is heavily dependent upon the quality of the original submitted. The following explanation of techniques is provided to help you understand markings or patterns which may appear on this reproduction. 1. The sign or "target” for pages apparently lacking from the document photographed is "Missing Page(s)".
