The Romance of Tristan By Beroul Richelle Runyon HUMN520 Fall 2012 Tristan’s Homeland Tristan hailed from Lyoness, which is shown in blue. There is debate as to whether the kingdom truly existed. www.tristanandisolde.net/articles/article/lyonesse Tristan’s Travels Cornwall and Ireland map courtesy of www.lonelyplanet.com/maps/europe Brittany map courtesy of www.discover.brittany.info Brief Synopsis King Rivalen of Lyoness married King Mark of Cornwall’s sister, Blanchefleur gave birth to a son, Tristan. After learning warlike and peaceful arts required of noble youth by his tutor, Governal, he sought out his uncle, King Mark, in Tintagel in an attempt to see other lands and seek adventure. Yet, he did so without revealing his identity. With his brevity and prowess, he launched himself to high status with the king. Tristan eventually revealed his royal lineage, but became wounded while fatally injuring Morholt, the brother of the Queen of Ireland. Giving all trust to God, he set out on a boat in faith that he would be sent somewhere to receive healing. Ironically, this journey took him to Ireland, where he received healing. This is where we first meet the barons, who quickly become Tristan’s enemies. Fearful that Tristan would inherit Mark’s riches, they pleaded with the king to find a wife. Begrudgingly, the king agreed to marry the woman who possessed the hair matching that of a strand he received from a swallow. Once again, we find our hero in route to Ireland, as the Irish king offered his daughter, Yseut as reward to any who could kill a dragon which had been reaping havoc on their land. Yseut was the owner of the hair King Mark desired. After a smattering of confusion and quarrels, Yseut agreed to become the wife of King Mark. On the travels back to Cornwall, both of our lead characters were mistakenly subjected to a love potion that was meant for Yseut and King Mark. This began a three year ordeal of secrecy, lies, deception, captures, escapes, murders, and exiles without the luxury of a happy ending. King Mark’s barons continued to fight the idea of Tristan’s favor and repeatedly try to expose Tristan and Yseut’s trysts. After successfully thwarting discovery under a tree, they were discovered after trickery involving flour concocted by an ill-fated dwarf. Our lover’s capture and escape ensued. After exile in the wilderness with Tristan’s tutor, Governal, the dreaded three year love potion wears off. Although they seek reconciliation with King Mark, it becomes clear that although the potion wore off, their love did not. Yseut is eventually vindicated, and Tristan completes his vengeance on the three barons. Yet, Tristan must still flee, eventually finding solace in Brittany. Ironically, he finds himself with another Yseut, this time the daughter of Duke Hoel. Yet, he cannot forget Mark’s Yseut and was riddled with guilt over what he did to his uncle. He tried to return to his love, but knew that it could not be. While helping another attempt to carry on an affair, Tristan was badly wounded, and sought for help from his own love interest. His current wife knew of this, and through her own deceitfulness cause him to think that Yseut the Fair had forsaken him. This caused Tristan to die. Learning of this, Yseut the fair died as well. Yet, they were never separated, as the branches of the trees where the two were buried insisted on being intertwined. Personality Traits Crucial to the Story: Is our Hero the Strong One, or Is it His Love? Tristan Brave? While he fights battles, kills a dragon, and earns favor with King Mark, he tends to cower in fear of him later. Yet, one must remember that King Mark is powerful. Once the potion wears off, Tristan does seem to remember his rank as a knight. Loyal? Tristan begins the story very loyal to King Mark, but once the potion has been consumed, he is more concerned with carrying out his affair, and concealing said affair rather than being honest and loyal to his king. Yet this loyalty to his uncle causes feelings of guilt many times in the story (Noble 750). Clever? Our hero seems willing to take part in some of the scheming in the story, yet it seems to be others who design these schemes. His part in the scheme placing him in the position of leper does carry much creativity! Vindictive? It would be difficult to argue with this point. Tristan definitely carries out vengeance on those who have wronged him. The barons met a murderous fate. Ysuet Tender? She takes care of Tristan when he is hurt. Although she is maddened at the discovery of his identity, she fulfills her caretaker duties. She is also very tender with Husdent later in the reading. Intriguing? In addition to King Mark & Tristan, the kingdom’s public seems enamored with Yseut the Fair. Kind? Although she was fearful of the lepers, she was kind to others whom her, Tristan, and Governal met along the way? Clever? Here is where it gets interesting. While much credit is given to our male hero, clues hint towards Yseut’s control of the situations. It is she who notices Mark’s shadow in the tryst under the tree and is able to manipulate the conversation to the lover’s benefit. It is she who reminds Mark of what she has given up to be with him to stoke his sympathies. She is able to deliver monologue that successfully has double meanings: one for Tristan and another for onlookers. It is Yseut who effectively disguises Tristan as a leper, and wonderfully spouts a humorous ramblings which stated: “I swear that no man ever came between my thighs except for the leper who carried me on his back across the ford and my husband, King Mark. These two I exclude from my oath” (Beroul 142) as the only one who knew that the leper was actually Tristan. She also maintains control of the situation be ensuring that her lover stays with the hermit. She is safe, yet she does not have to let her lover go (Noble). Yseut, continued Vindictive? Like Tristan, she seeks revenge on those who have done them wrong: the barons, the forester, the dwarf. She also sought to have Brangain murdered when she discovered that Brangain accidentally served her and Tristan the love potion. King Mark Easily influenced? King Mark seems to be eager to listen to whomever will give him advice, whether it be the barons, the dwarf, Tristan, Dinas, Yseut, or King Arthur. He is quick to change opinions, based on what he is told. Easy to anger? Just as he can be influenced in his beliefs, those who advise him are also able to quickly move him to anger. On page 78, he kills the dwarf who earlier led him to the tree and also created the flour incident (Beroul). Yet, since the dwarf gave him horse’s ears, vengeance may not have been out of line! In love? While Mark does appear to love his fair Yseut, does his desire to keep her stem from this love, or is it a product of his ire at being wronged? Powerful? Although Mark is a king, his people have the appearance of being not completely under his power. On page 66, they cry for mercy on Tristan and seek for the dwarf to be murdered and vengeance on the barons (Beroul). While the lovers had been discovered, the people did not agree with them being punished as the King wished. Governal The Three Barons Vindictive? Governal kills not Vindictive? only the leper to set Yseut free, Jealous? Both of these traits can he also cut up one of the easily be seen in the three barons who had sealed the barons. They seem to be doing lovers’ fate (Beroul 74 & 85). whatever they can to harm Loyal? When the lovers escape Tristan, even if that includes and leave all luxuries to live in disposing of the wife that they the wilderness, Governal does so diligently begged King Mark not hesitate to stay with the to find at the beginning of the couple. In regards to the above story. murder of the leper, the text in Powerful? Although the three Fredrick states that Tristan was make attempts to be powerful “too noble and too courtly to by putting themselves in good kill such people” (75). graces with King Mark, they end up banished and later dead. The people repeatedly admonish their behaviors. Hypocrisy in The Romance of Tristan While it is hard to be against our ill-fated hero and his lover, it is hard to ignore the hypocrisies that are presented. King Mark chose his wife simply based on a hair presented to him by a bird, and wanted one for the “explicit purpose of begetting heirs” (Beroul 16). Yet, she is, by law, his wife. Therefore, is it right that our main characters carry on an illicit affair? Readers are presented the story in a way that we cannot help but be in their corner, especially with the hardships that they endure, yet it is hard to ignore that they are deceiving King Mark and all that they lie to along the way. While the love potion can be blamed, Frederick calls us to a good point when he states, “even if the potion does excuse their passion, however, it is still difficult at times to see how it can excuse what seem to be the lovers’ attitudes towards their illicit love” (17).

    Ovid’s Wand: the brush of history and the mirror of ekphrasis Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of The Ohio State University By Reid Hardaway, M.A. Graduate Program in English The Ohio State University 2017 Dissertation Committee: Ethan Knapp, Advisor Karen Winstead Sarah-Grace Heller Copyright by Reid Hardaway 2017 Abstract The recent work on the manuscript reception of Ovid’s canon and Ovidian commentaries in western Europe has affirmed the author’s significant literary influence in the late Mid- dle Ages. The production and reception of Ovidinia flourished, and Ovid’s poems in- creasingly became read as coherent compositions rather than dissected for bits of moral exempla. In particular, the Metamorphoses profoundly affects the literary landscape of late medieval France and England. Allusions to Ovid’s poem reemerge throughout the late Middle Ages at defining moments of poetic self-consciousness, most often through figures of ekphrasis, the use of poetry in order to portray other media of art. By examin- ing such moments from a selection of influential medieval poems, the mind of the late medieval poet reveals itself in perpetual contestation with the images and figures of an Ovidian lineage, but the contest entails the paradoxical construction of poetic identity, which forces the poet to impose the haunting shadow of literary history onto the mirror of his or her craft. ii Acknowledgements The following work would not have been possible without the considerate and insightful assistance of my advisor, Ethan Knapp, as well as the other members of the dissertation committee, Karen Winstead and Sarah-Grace Heller.

    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.

    Classical and Christian Ideas of World Harmony

    CLASSICAL AND CHRISTIAN IDEAS OF WORLD HARMONY Prolegomena to an Interpretation of the Word "Stimmung" Part I By LEO SPITZER Die Sonne t?nt, nach alter Weise In Brudersph?ren Wettgesang. (Goethe, Faust) Und so ist wieder jede Kreatur nur ein Ton, eine Schattierung einer grossen Harmonie, die man auch im Ganzen und Grossen studieren muss, sonst ist jedes Einzelne nur ein toter Buchstabe. (Goethe to Knebel, November 17, 1789) In the following study I propose to reconstruct the many-layered Occidental background for a German word: the concept of world harmony which underlies the word Stimmung. This task implies a survey of the whole semantic "field", as itwas developed in different epochs and literatures : the concept and the words expressing it had to be brought face to face, and in the words, in turn, the seman tic kernel and the emotional connotations with their variations and fluctuations in time had to be considered. A "Stimmungsgeschichte" of the word Stimmung was necessary. I hope that this historical development will spontaneously, if gradually, emerge from the mosaic of texts to which I wished my running text to be subordinated: the consistency of the texture of verbal and conceptual asso ciations and motifs through the centuries seems to me to be herewith established. "Avez-vous un texte?" was the insistent question which the famous positivist Fustel de Coulanges was wont to address to his pupils when they made a historical statement. The student in historical semantics must ask: "Have you many texts?", for only with a great number of them is one enabled to visualize their ever-recurrent pattern.

    Cornwall in the Early Arthurian Tradition It Is Believed That an Actual “King Arthur” Lived in 6Th Century AD in the Southwe

    Cornwall in the Early Arthurian Tradition Heather Dale April 2008 It is believed that an actual “King Arthur” lived in 6th Century AD in the southwestern area of Britain. A brief history lesson is needed to provide the backdrop to this historical Arthur. In 43 AD, the Romans occupied Britain, subduing the northern Pictish & Scottish tribes, and incorporating the pre-literate but somewhat more civilized Celtic peoples into the Roman Empire. The Romans intermarried with the Celts, who emulated their customs and superior technology; these Romanized Celts became known as Britons. When the Romans abandoned Britain in 410 AD, the Britons found themselves attacked on all sides: the northern tribes pushed south, the Irish raided from the west, and fierce Germanic tribes (Angles, Saxons, Jutes, Franks, Frisians) and Norsemen slowly pushed the Celts into southwestern Wales and Cornwall. Some even fled across to the Continent, establishing Brittany in western France and becoming known as Bretons. It is in this turbulent post-Roman time that a brave man, perhaps a sort of tribal chieftain, led a small force of Britons into battle with the Germanic tribes. And due to tactical skill, superior fighting prowess and/or incredible luck (we will never know) this Artorius or Arthur held back the Germanic hordes from his corner of Britain for 30 years, a full generation. This incredible feat is first mentioned in a 6th century quasi-historical Latin chronicle by the monk Gildas. Later chroniclers added detail of dubious historical accuracy but great heroism to the tale of Arthur. The Venerable Bede wrote in 731 AD about the first great victory over the Saxons at Mount Badon (surmised by some to be Liddington Castle near Swindon), and the Welsh chronicler Nennius bases his 9th century story on material from the rich Welsh storytelling tradition.

This study examines Wagner’s adaptation of his source, the Tristan of Gottfried von Strassburg, to construct a character that represents the courtly chivalric society of the opera in opposition to the new order represented in Tristan’s passionate pursuit of love and, ultimately, of death. Building on literary scholarship of the Tristan tradition, this study explores issues of duality and decline in Mark’s character and the elements of his chivalric friendship with Tristan within the homosocial constructs of the courts. Through his use of traditional operatic lament form, associative orchestration, and text expression, Wagner constructs a king who is more nuanced that any of his predecessors: one cleansed by tragedy and capable of forgiveness.

    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
