Can King Arthur. Can It Be True?

Since very few individuals could write, stories of Arthur were mainly told by word of mouth. Oral stories did not get written down until later; Geoffrey of Monmouth wrote down the stories as one of the first written manuscript of Arthurian legend in 1139. Word of mouth was the way in which Arthur's story is passed down through the years, and it is safe to assume that during that time, the story transformed and evolved. Stories are embellished and added to, depending on the audience, in order to make it more exciting. As discussed before in this paper, local tradition had placed Camelot in an area that was proven

According to The Independent, "the legendary British figure of the fifth and sixth century did exist but was a general rather than a monarch." Despite Arthur being a monarch was a myth, according to the source he did still fight in a copious amount of battles. Which makes sense given that a general would go into many battles rather than a king. Although theres still more to these new findings, the source that contrary to whats been said before, "he fought all his battles in southern Scotland and Northumberland and lived most of his

This must be true, they reported, for beneath the coffin was a stone with a leaden cross sunk into it and a Latin inscription saying: ‘Here lies King Arthur in this tomb with Guinevere his wife, in the Isle of Avalon.’ The bones, they said, were of more than mortal size, and there were many more signs and wonders proving that here indeed lay King Arthur. The story, it seems, was invented by the monks to bring fresh glory to their Abbey – and also to please the Norman kings of England, who did not like their conquered subjects to believe that King Arthur might return any day and release them from their new overlords. And we may think, if we like, that it was Launcelot and not Arthur whom the monks dug up in the reign of Richard Coeur de Lion and reburied with all honour in a marble tomb”(p.328).

Standing there I can taste the bitterness of minerals in the musty damp air. The air is moist and cool to the touch, I can almost see my breath as walk about the cavern. I am stopped in the center of the room just as the world around me becomes black. All of the lights have been shut down. I am enveloped in the blackness that surrounds me. I can feel my heart pounding out of my chest, knowing that this is the truest black that I have ever experienced. As I adjust to my surroundings I don’t hear a single voice, or any noises at all. My senses are heightened now and I am able to feel a slight breeze across the nape of my neck. I can feel the moisture of the air on the palms of my hands as I clench them together turning my knuckles white. Time continues to pass as I stand there in the dark. I start to hear to dripping of water as it pools onto the floor along with the screeching of bats in the distance. A sense of calmness floods over me. Time seems to drag on making seconds feel like hours. I begin to hear a faint buzz, then suddenly and all at once light returns to every crevice of the cave. Details arise that were not apparent when I had first entered the

I run over turned off the music and told everyone to shut up. I started to read the text when the Marine guys walked in and said, “ Did you get the text?”

The knights set up their camp hidden from any travellers taking the road, but close to a pond which is connected to a river for water supply. They've been told this quest may up to a week to complete, but its only been three days yet they're close to achieving the reward. The knights begin finishing Merlin's cooking as they take shifts for sleeping. Merlin slumped against a tree mumbling to himself about the obnoxious prat he calls Arthur, soon enough falling asleep.

Throughout the centuries King Arthur’s story has continued to develop through speculation, conjecture, and evidence; however, much of this has long been contested. Few people argue he exists for lack of evidence and an abundance of mystery. The majority of Arthurian enthusiasts believe he never existed or was a character created by combining the best traits of heroes at the time. Some just do not care, these people get from Arthur inspiration and courage, whether he was real or not. In most cases King Arthur being real would just be icing on the cake. Such a discovery would be life changing not only would it put to rest all the controversy that has perplexed people for centuries, but it would also bestow credibility where it is due. On the

The second connecting medium which we can use to differentiate the dreams and reality is totems. “You need a small object, potentially heavy. Something you can have on you that on one else knows.” This is what Arthur tells Ariadne in the movie. He also tells her that, “That way when you look at your totem, you know beyond a doubt that you are not in someone else’ s dreams.” To be precise, a totem is a object which may be used by an architect to discriminate the dreams and reality. In the movie, Arthur has a loaded dice as his totem. “Only I know the balance and the weight of this particular loaded die.” Radically, it is still a different point between the dreams and the reality. But it is something known particularly by the architects. We can also discover that Dominic Cobb has a pinwheel in the movie.

After many years of reading and watching fantasy books and movies, I did come across the legends of King Arthur and his knights at the round table. The first time I was introduced to the legend was when I watched Disney’s The Sword in the Stone. Since I saw this movie when I was younger and the only movies I wanted to watch during that time was Disney’s Lady and the Tramp and 101 Dalmatians, I did not pay any attention to the movie whatsoever. Although I did not “watch” the movie, I still remembered the basics of the legend. The second time I was introduced to this legend
