Ep 135 - Arthuriana 1: Building a Medieval Canon
Added 2023-10-05 11:50:31 +0000 UTChello, patrons, here's your ad-free regular episode for the week. we answer questions from Aurora, white trash historian, and gaffsey in this one.
folks, we're finally doing that series on King Arthur and the Arthurian Legends you've all been asking for. Luke and Eleanor start the series by talking about Arthur and the legends more broadly before discussing how a bunch of people in the Middle Ages built a cohesive, narrative canon with defined literary cycles out of a bunch of Welsh spoken-word stories without the aid of the internet or any of the modern conveniences that normally go into modern universe building. check it out!

You asked about arthuriana porn/fanfic Oh boy!! It’s there, you just have to know where to look 😉 I’m sorry Luke, but I did just yell ‘there is no arthiriana canon’ in your intro!
