Arthurian Traditions (04/04)
"Good morning, class. We're almost to the end of the Mabinogian. Which is a good thing, seeing as . . ." he said dryly, holding up his copy of the Mabinogian, with a large hole very clearly chewed right through it. "You will be having a quiz on Thursday on those stories we have covered from the Welsh tales, including Culhwch and Olwen from the beginning of the term. The tale of today is the story of Gereint and Enid, about a knight who fell too deeply in love with a woman and they both suffered for it."
He goes over the story, focusing on a few points and once again writing things up on the board, horribly misspelling the Welsh words unless he checked them against the book. Well, as much of the book as he still had.
"Alright. What did you think of the character of Enid in this story? How does she fit in with the mold of Arthurian women? What is the cause of the dissatisfaction of Gereint's men?"
