The Arthurian Legend
The Arthurian Legend developed in Europe between c. 830, when the Welsh historian Nennius first mentions King Arthur through c. 1469 when Sir Thomas Malory composes Le Morte D’Arthur, the best-known version of the tales, which was published by William Caxton in 1485 and became a best-seller, as it has remained since its revival in the 19th century.
This collection presents a brief overview of the history of the tales and some of the central characters.

A tale where Gawain and a dragon fall in love
"The Gay maiden" is a short but very nice 15th century manuscript. It belongs to the Arthurian cycle and the protagonist knight is sir Gawain. The original is in Italian, this is the first English translation I find.
Check it out and let me know what you think of it!

Arthur had felt for a long time that a lot of his life was laid out before him. He had pulled the sword from the stone as a boy, been crowned king and surrounded by knights since that day. 10years later and his path still felt like it was clear and laid out before him which he really should have been very grateful for and yet it troubled him too. He had never considered himself to be extraordinary, he still didn't believe it and tried very hard to stop people elevating him beyond what he was. A mortal man just like the rest of them.
With that heavy thought in his heart again after a day out in his newly founded city, Arthur had made his way to speak with the wizard, a man who had played quite a lead role in his life since as long as he could remember. Arthur still knocked on the door before entering, never assuming his right to the man's space and always a little cautious in case he walked in and had his eyebrows singed off by some magic he was working on.
"It's Arthur, I was hoping to speak with you," he called into the room knowing it was best to make sure he knew it was him just in case. He made sure not to sound too forlorn he felt really rather foolish coming to complain about people apparently loving and respecting him as their King. Really he did not feel like he had anyone else to turn to. His knights were supposed to be his equals and yet called him 'Sire' all the same. He sometimes missed being called 'Wart'.

Since the Edward I biography is a fairly dense read, I grabbed this pretty little volume as a palate cleanser in between ❤️ Arthurian Legends by Rosalind Kerven. It's such an easy read with some beautiful illustrations: I'm halfway through it already! . . . . . #books #bookstagram #bookstagrammer #kingarthur #arthurpendragon #arthurianmyths #arthurianlegends #welshmythsandlegends #bookporn https://www.instagram.com/p/Cm9u-WTtW5a/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Knight of the Blue Surcoat is back, and this time with another Orlando chapter . . . and he sure seems like he’s in trouble!
Knight of the Blue Surcoat - Chapter XVII: Orlando Furioso (on Wattpad) https://www.wattpad.com/1322960859-knight-of-the-blue-surcoat-chapter-xvii-orlando?utm_source=web&utm_medium=tumblr&utm_content=share_reading&wp_uname=OneWinterNight&wp_originator=TGJlLwBbupB%2F31cLcMRfuQxkmCHnmcqak%2FLlTv05EmMlcYsgm%2F3XHsSI6sUAAXXfEd%2BP8Neu82VfHW53gJ2GlWYQjsdO7dJvroJw%2FG9qtfaoDWh4HMv1z9gCjO3%2F3Sg5 Being King Arthur's daughter is not as good as it sounds. Sixteen-year-old Melora has struggled to find her place ever since her brother was trampled to death in a hunting accident. Her father raised her to be a warrior, but Melora isn't allowed to enter the nearby forest to prove herself worthy. She wants to escape, but how can she leave when even the sight of a horse makes her paralyzed with fear? Prince Orlando is expendable. His arrogant brothers and distant father were thrilled for him to leave tiny Thessaly. Orlando heard tales of Arthur's court, where men are measured by their worth. He came to prove himself; he didn't plan to fall in love. Pursuing Melora earns him powerful enemies and endangers them both. When Orlando is cursed to eternal imprisonment in the Otherworld, only Melora can save him and break the curse. Melora must overcome warriors, outsmart kings, and face her deepest fears if she wants to get Orlando out alive. But first, she'll have to get on a horse. *A Retelling of The Adventure of Melora and Orlando*
