Lancelot, or the Knight of the Cart

Alongside Perceval, Chretien's story of Lancelot was the most influential of his romances on later Arthurian lore. This narrative introduces Lancelot and the adulterous relationship with Queen Guinevere that will eventually undo Arthur's kingdom. The story itself, however, is simply a knightly adventure of romance, enchantment, and impractical bridge design.http://www.matterofbritianpodcast.comhttp://www.patreon/com/thematterofbritainpodcast Hosted on Acast.
