5 Middle Ages Test Review Romances
The characteristics of a medieval Romance are : Exotic setting Supernatural events Hidden identities The medieval romance is lighthearted in tone and somewhat loose in structure The medieval romance is NOT really about love relationships!

6 Middle Ages Test Review Arthurian Tales
The REAL King Arthur was a Celtic warlord who lived in Wales Arthurian tales are anachronistic Sir Thomas Malory was the author of "Le Morte d'Arthur" and he was re-telling a story that had been previously written in French  Malory is lamenting the disappearance or passing away of this golden time of chivalry. Camelot is gone and none of the chivalric ideals (love, courage, fidelity, faithfulness or worthiness) can revive the golden age that is lost.
