When Agravaine and Mordred tell Arthur that Launcelot has been sleeping with Guenever for decades, the old king sits down heavily. “Do you have any evidence?” he asks. “Evidence?”  Agravaine is puzzled.  “What, suddenly the burden of proof is on … Continue reading →

Primary Sources: Le Morte D’Arthur, Book XIX Conclusions

Primary Sources Posted on July 18, 2014 by jeffwikJuly 13, 2015

The day of Launcelot’s and Meliagrace’s joust fast approaches!  If Launcelot doesn’t show, Meligrance wins by default, and thus Guenever is convicted of adultery with a mystery knight, and she’ll be burned at the stake!  No one wants that!  Arthur … Continue reading →

Shortly afterwards Launcelot and Guenever plan a night-time rendezvous.  Lavaine thinks this is a bad idea, what with Sir Meliagrance the Recently Pardoned still hanging around Camelot just looking for an excuse to take Launcelot down a peg.  Launcelot ignores … Continue reading →

Once they’re at Meligrance’s castle, Guenever’s knights have their wounds bound, which is good, but they’re kept under constant guard, which is bad.  No one knows where they went, which is what Meliagrance is counting on!  If Arthur and Launcelot … Continue reading →
