How did Sir Modred meet King Arthur?

Thus was it written to King Arthur. Then, in passing great wrath and haste, he came with all his army swiftly back from France and sailed to England. But when Sir Modred heard thereof, he left the Tower and marched with all his host to meet the king at Dover.

How did the Four Knights of King Arthur find Sir key?

What did Sir Bedivere say to King Arthur?

“Help me from hence,” said King Arthur; “for I dread me I have tarried over long.” Then Sir Bedivere took the king up in his arms, and bore him to the water’s edge. And by the shore they saw a barge with three fair queens therein, all dressed in black, and when they saw King Arthur they wept and wailed.

What did Sir Noran say to King Arthur?

“Yea,” answered Sir Noran, “I know him well, and there be few better or stronger knights upon a field than he; and he is passing proud and haughty in his heart; wherefore I doubt not, Lord, he will make war on thee with mighty power.” “Well,” said King Arthur, “I shall be ready for him, and that shall he find.”

1. INTRODUCTION

2. LITERARY CONTEXT

Even though Chrétien and Wolfram shared the same historical time, the literary influences affecting

each differ considerably. The main past inspirational forces belonged to one of the ensuing three literary cycles: the Matter of Alexander, the Matter of France and the Matter of Britain. The first, incorporated the epic writings from Ancient times dealing with the Story of Alexander, from which

twelve-syllable-long Alexandrine verse-lines come from (Payen 147); the second cycle featured

Christian epics written in the French , among which The Song of Roland is the best-known

example (Lestringant 204); lastly, the Matter of Britain heavily drank from Celtic and Breton legends

and largely centred on the Arthurian myth (Payen 151). However, by far the most interesting product of the Arthurian cycle is that of the myth of the Grail. 2 Out

indubitably inspired Chrétien to produce his masterpiece, Perceval or The Tale of the Grail.

Additionally, he might have received influence from The Brut by Robert Wace, considered to be the very first Arthurian tale proper in the Matter of Britain Cycle. The most widely read translation of GeoffreHistoria Regum BrittaniaeBrut, set the tone for the posterior Arthurian narrative tradition (Berthelot 30) by providing a vast corpus of recurrent characters in posterior Arthurian Literature, such as Keu, Mordred, Uther Pendragon and King Arthur himself (Berthelot 64). Regarding Wolfram, he was probably inspired by the same source Perceval, which he adapted and improved in order to better fit German tastes. Concerning Malory, the Matter of Britain might have been his main inspirational force. We shall now have a look at the main storyline of the three works we are going to analyse later.

3. BOOK SUMMARIES

The common denominator in the three accounts that are object of this present study is the narration of

the heroic adventures a young knight undergoes in search for the Holy Grail. However, the three differ

regarding the starting point of the s walk, there being several minor plot differences between

Perceval Parzival, whereas rail by Thomas Malory

is completely different from the other two. 3 4 5

5. ANALYSIS

5.1. ELEMENTS OF THE GRAIL CEREMONY

PercevalParzival and

holy relic known as the Grail, but also other magical elements of which the Bleeding Lance and the Swords will be subjected to careful

analysis in this paper. Nevertheless, I shall commence by describing the nature of the Grail Castle that

contains them first. 8

5.1.1. THE GRAIL CASTLE

However,

5.1.2. THE HOLY GRAIL

Various writers are of the view that the Grail (and its ceremony) has its roots on Irish tradition. The

transition from pagan cauldron of plenty to Christian cup of redemption, can be traced back to the Irish

or sea-voya, dates back to the 7th C (Brown,

66). Likewise, it has been ascribed

The Fisher

King..., 417-8). On the other hand, many Christian legends have survived up to date relating the mythological origin of the Holy Grail. One such is to be found in the Perceval trilogy by Robert de

symbolising the continued presence of Christ in the world, to help and save- this was the final cause,

Parzival roughly attempts at divulging through whose inspiration it is revealed to humanity (i.e., Hatto 232- 9 how it is taken up to Heaven by God Himself (Perceval, it is hard to establish the origin of the Cup based on the little information that the book provides. tales, and is directly correlated to the

nature of the rest of elements at table during the ceremony (mainly cutlery/kitchen utensils), with the

notable exception of the Bleeding-Lance. However, he does not provide any clear details regarding the

mystical origin of the Cup. Furthermore, both Wolfram (Hatto 126-7, 240) and Malory (317, 393, 400) coincide in depicting the Grail as a provider of food. In vine food (wafer or b397) through which the kindred relationship between man and God is assured (Nitze, -1), not just regular, earthly food.

Moreover, in some cases

Fs account suggests that the Gras angels, who surround Chrétien (Poirion 756) and Wolfram (Hatto 251 Virtuous virgins; 401 Repanse de Schoie) resort to pure maidens to introduce the Grail to the congregation .1.3. THE BLEEDING LANCE 10 11

5.1.4. THE SWORDS

5.1.5. OTHER ELEMENTS AT THE GRAIL CEREMONY

This section places an emphasis on secondary elements influencing the overall atmosphere at the Grail

Ceremony, yet not affecting the main plot. These elements are: the banquet, the wafer, the fish and the

blood. Perceval, the Grail dinner would resemble a regular banquet since the Holy Cup is seemingly accompanied by regular kitchen utensils (mainly cutlery) and the congregation is offered a dish of deer as meat (Poirion 766). 13

5.2. SOCIAL-TIES

The myth of the Grail is a complex narrative in which the social superstructure influences the action
