King Arthur is an outstanding British leader of the 5th and the 6th centuries, son of Uther Pendragon and the Lady Igraine. Arthur is one of the greatest mythical heroes that the world has ever known. Arthur has had a great influence on other people and many of them looked up to him. The coming of Arthur was prophesied years before he was even born. Arthur was born into a world of chaos and disorder, full of love and tragedy. Nowadays, many of the scholars continue to argue whether or not King Arthur was a real person or just a mythological figure. Based on facts however, many believe that Arthur was not a real person; just a legendary British leader in the 5th and 6th centuries. According to history, there wasn't anyone named King Arthur

Roger Lancelyn Green portrays King Arthur as an archetypal hero in King Arthur and his Knights of the Round Table. A literary archetype is a universal symbol that can describe a type of character or patterns of human nature that show up in many different types of literature (Archetypes). When thinking of an archetypal hero there are many things that can describe this type of character such as having a mother that is pure, unusual birth, being rased by foster parents, little is known of the heros childhood, ends up returning to his or her kingdom, takes on the roal of king or queen, has to defeat a ruler or beast, falls in love with prince or princess, not much happens while they are the ruler, the gods lose faver in him or her, his or her death is mysterious, and has a sepulcher(Nelson 4). King Arthur is a great example of an archetypal hero.

Ideally, a king has an old look, a great amount of power, and naturally rules his domain with an iron fist in literature. In the two works, Le Morte d'Arthur and First Knight see two different versions of how king Arthur is portrayed. Yet the honor and respect that a king should have remains undisturbed, much like how both are products of their time. First Knight is told as a modern retelling of the legend and Le Morte d'Arthur is a minorly altered, much older work. While the depictions of king Arthur are seen as the paramount backbone for arthurian times, these two works have also proven to exhibit differences and similarities, illustrate Arthur’s figure in character, and serve as preservation of the time period.

Heros have been an influential topic throughout all different time periods; however, many of them have a different definition of a hero. The one thing they all share in common is the fact that how they display their heroes is a strong reflection of their culture during the time. Many of these “heroes” were displayed in similar ways, mostly based on the legend of King Arthur. In Le Morte D’Arthur, various qualities of heroes and villains are displayed throughout the tale; consequently, having an influence on many other characters throughout history.

When you hear the word ‘hero,’ you probably envision someone wearing a uniform, serving the country and preparing for war. We place veterans and soldiers in the spotlight at the mention of it. The population never did this in the past. Americans saw veterans as regular people just like us. They were: tall and short, smart and dumb, and capable of bad and good decisions. However, now we treat them as if they were gods. We do this because we saw veterans as our protectors against the dangers our country faces. Yet, we still felt like this in the past, but we didn’t honor veterans like in today’s society; maybe it’s because less soldier were returning in body bags.

Most Americans recall lying gleefully in front of the television, arms and legs splayed across the carpet, enchanted by an eccentric cartoon of Merlin’s antics. A few of us might even remember Gawain’s short segment from Between the Lions on PBS. King Arthur’s legend is certainly many a child’s favorite fairytale, but some historians propose that a fairytale is all King Arthur is. Significant evidence, such as a lack of credibility and personality consistency, prove their points. However, according to other historians, there is still reason to believe in Arthur’s legend. Without one examining both sides of the argument and Arthur’s role in history, it is impossible to determine whether Arthur is fact or fiction.

King Arthur, the legendary king of Camelot, was the son of King Uther Pendragon of Britain and Queen Igriane. When he was born, King Uther feared for his life, since Arthur was the only heir to the throne. He gave the responsibility of keeping Arthur safe to his trusted advisor and friend Merlin.

King Arthur and the Church King Arthur could be known as a hero or a dashing prince in armor but no one ever thinks of him as a Savior. In many literature pieces there are multiple biblical allegories showing that King Arthur was the Savior of the Medieval Times referencing to Christ was the Savior for the Earth. There are also relationships between King Arthur’s literature and Christ’s story involving the Holy Grail even though the “powers” of the cup are different in these pieces. King Arthur’s literature has many metaphors relating to Christianity including the Savior element and the Holy Grail, which center around how people viewed Christianity in the Middle Ages and how Christ affected many people’s lives.

Is King Arthur a good leader role model? In King Arthur and his Knights of the Round Table by Roger Lancelyn Green, King Arthur is a great leader because he stands up for what he beleives in, is kind hearted, and is loyal.

During the years that King Arthur ruled over England, his reign is always remembered as a time of peace, a golden age, a great era, and a glorious time. However, this all comes to a halt, when two of Arthur’s most noble knights bring an affair into the open, causing his round table and kingdom to fall and bringing Arthur to his death. Written by Sir Thomas Malory in the latter half of the 15th century, books 20 and 21 of Morte D’Arthur (Death of Arthur) describe how over time, the tragic hero, King Arthur slowly loses control over his kingdom due to his ignorance, leading to a few errors in judgement that inevitably lead him to his own demise and to the passing of the great era that was the reign of the legendary King Arthur. King Arthur is a tragic hero due to his ignorance, overly trusting manner, and the careless mistakes that he makes during his time as king.
