KING ARTHUR
King Arthur and the knights of the round table belong to a long line of books and stories of the Arthurian legend. Merlin, Lancelot, The lady of the lake, King Arthur, and Excaliber are all very important in the Arthurian legend. In this essay we will talk about King Arthur, the knights of the round table, and Merlin in the famous story, The sword in the stone. The Sword in the stone is a book about an adopted child named wart. He is of royal blood and does not know this. One day when Wart is in the forest, he finds a magician named Merlin. Merlin comes home with Wart and agrees with Sir Ector, Wart's guardian, to become Wart's tutor. Merlin goes about educating Wart by Transforming him into different animals. Through each transformation Wart experiences different forms of power, each being a part of how he should rule as king. The first transformation takes Wart and Merlin into the castle's moat as a fish. They then meet the largest fish in the moat, which is an alligator who is the ruler. The alligator takes what he wants because of his size. In a speech about power, he tells Wart that "Might is right," and might of the body is greater than might of the mind. Because of the way the alligator rules, his subjects
That's also what Merlin teaches King Arthur. Another version of the story was Morte Arthur. Two men by the names of Jordanes ( 6th century) and William (11th century) contributed to the legend of Arthur. Geoffrey is the one responsible for the portrayal of Arthur as a great King who conquered the British Isles and much of Europe. All the birds into the mews have a military rank. Their input was perhaps the real basis of future adaptations of the story of Arthur. Some of the new elements added included the round table, courtly love and the love affair between Lancelot and Gwynevere, which ends up ruining Lancelot. In Wart's next make over Wart is transformed into an ant and posted within an ant colony. Lancelot defended a woman who was being attacked by knight. He was dedicated to his work of adventure and helping the weak by his pledge to the knighthood. The ants are of a collective mind, so that what one thinks, they all think. Sir Lancelot proved he was a caring person in many ways throughout his life long story as a knight.
