- King Arthur's Legends
King Arthur remains alive and well in our hearts through narratives of medieval romances. We can thank the French for circulating historical stories of Arthur's life a long time ago. Without them, we would not be reading the books and narratives we have today. Here is some great historical background information to keep you in the know. - Middle Ages Rom-Com
The Knight's Tale is a medieval romantic comedy that is a perfect companion to The Once and Future King. Courtly love, chivalry, and the place of knights in society are explored, and explored humorously, we might add. If you're going to have to learn something, may as well make it entertaining.
