King Arthur Course Part One: A Fine Romance

CA$165.00

Sir Thomas Malory’s Le Morte Darthur is the only work of medieval literature still commonly read by laypeople for pleasure. It represents an inflection point for Arthurian literature: it is the primary source to which virtually all adaptation or expansions of Arthurian legend return, and it is the lens through which scholars and amateurs alike have viewed older Arthurian legend for centuries. Come read Le Morte Darthur with me, and discover the adventure, the pathos, the mystery, an the humour of this amazing work.

The King Arthur Course will be divided in three parts, which will not depend on one another. Part One: A Fine Romance will focus on knights errant, ladies and maidens and damsels in distress, courtly romance, and love triangles.
