41. Arthurian Legends Arthurian Legend: A legend is a story about extraordinary deeds that has been told and retold for generations among a group of people. Legends, which are often about a particular person, are thought to have a historical basis but may also contain some elements of magic and myth. I can explain how characters function as archetypes.

42. The King Arthur legends are probably based on a fifth-or sixth-century Celtic chieftain, or warlord, who lived in Wales and led his people to victory against Saxon invaders from northern Germany. The chieftain was said to have been fatally wounded in battle and buried in the abbey of Glastonbury, where a gravestone can still be seen bearing his name. Arthurian legend as we know it today emerged gradually over centuries as storytellers told and retold popular tales about a great chief who mysteriously disappeared but promised to return when his people needed him. When Sir Thomas Malory wrote Le Morte d’Arthur, toward the end of the fifteenth century, the days of knights were over. Nonetheless, something in Malory’s portrayal of those days seems to have answered a longing in his audience for the more orderly time of knights and lords and castles-a time when “might fought for right.” http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bjjsoCeGUVw I can explain how characters function as archetypes.
