Arthuriana 2: The Once and Future King
🕑 Added 2023-10-11 14:11:11 +0000 UTChello patrons, this is your ad-free version of this week's regular episode. we answer a question from A Guy From PA in this one.
we're back with more talk of Arthurian legend. this time, we continue to trace the canon into the Modern era, from its nadir in the Early Modern period to its resurrection in the 19th century by Lord Alfred Tennyson and finally to taking its place as a foundational myth in the English-speaking world. then, we introduce a host of recurring characters, settings, and tropes that commonly appear both in the Medieval canon and in the modern adaptations we see today. check it out!

My head canon is that Arthur is not so much cuckolded as in a poly relationship with Lancelot and Guinevere - it makes everything so much better!
