Hi! I don’t know if you still look at these notifications because you haven’t posted in a few years, but I absolutely love your channel. As an Arthurian lit enthusiast your channel is a gem. I hope you come back to posting some time! ❤️❤️
I enjoy your passion for Arthurian literature. I began reading Monmouth because of you and have learned a lot. You seem to be the only content creator that focuses on Arthurian literature as much as I would like. It would be nice if there was a video I could watch after reading a chapter or book as a review/critique. I took a course online for The Oddessy like what I am describing and it helps immensely. Great job. Keep it up
Really appreciate your content. This is realy an amazing channel. I read TH White and Thomas Malory yrs ago and I always wanted to get into the original sources but never really knew how. Can't wait to see your future videos on Arthurian lit and other medieval works as well. Sidenote: just finished the quest for the holy grail from the prose Lancelot. Absolutely love it and would love to read the whole cycle someday.
Thank you so much! I'm really happy to hear you enjoy the channel! Much more to come on Arthurian literature :) That's so great that you've just finished it, it's a great read!
With every other video, I feel that there’s so much more to learn for me. I’m anxious to see more of it on your channel! As I’ve written before, I’m reading the subtitles while following your videos, because of all the names (How else would I understand words like “Mabinogion”? 😁) and so on. The subtitles were really helpful, thank you very much! It would be even better if the texts you are superimposing, like the chapter titles, would be written somewhere to the left or right, so that they’re not hidden behind the subtitles. Thank you for all the work you’re putting into these videos! 👍
I'm so glad the videos are being helpful to you! And it makes me really happy to hear you want to see more :) Thank you for the feedback, I'll definitely change that for the next video!
I just found your channel and I can't wait to share it with my students. I'll be teaching Marie de France soon . . . do you know of an earlier instance of the sort of "true lover's knot" in the "Chevrefoil"? The same sort of thing shows up at the end of later English ballads like "Barbara Allen" and "Lord Lovell" -- two plants tangling together inseparably -- & I've always wondered if Marie was the first to write about it. She does imply that Iseult immediately recognizes the folk motif of the hazel & the honeysuckle . . . .
Great channel - are you going to delve into Spencer's the faerie Queene ? Arthur and i think Morgana le fay pop up in that. Not sure/cant remeber about Merlin. or is the poem to late for yr remit ?
Hahah, well let me help you: it is "The once and future king" by T.H. White, "Arthurian romances" by Chrétien, "The Lais of Marie de France" by Marie herself, and "Le Morte Darthur" by Thomas Malory! :)
I'm planning on writing a book that highlights the fact that Morgana, according to G. of Monmouth, was the one to take Arthur to the Isle of Avalon. Is there a video or book you'd recommend that gives more information about what books she was mentioned in before Le Morte de'Arthur was written?
Since you seem to appreciate other nerd culture mediums I thought you might like this new comic series called Once and Future If you haven’t heard of it already. It’s basically a Indiana Jones esque adventure story about this man and his grandmother trying to stop these Nationalists who have revived Arthurian legends from the dead and use them for power. Lots of references and fresh new takes on the legends!
Why fhe early 12th century? Because the story came back from the Near East with returning Templars. That is why Wolfram von Eschenbach starts his story in Mesopotamia, ….with the father of Perceval working for King Barus (King Abgarus of Edessa). The conception story of Arthur is copied from the conception of Hercules. …just to confirm that Arthur is a demi-god. R
Can it be that Arthur is the story of Jesus (PBUH)? Didn’t did and was taken to a place to heal (sounds like it) willl one day return (Self-explanatory)
I’m so glad I found your channel! It feels like a hidden treasure
I'm so glad you like it, that means a lot! :)
I’m delighted with your fantastic and incredibly useful video! Thank you very much!

Do you still plan on continuing this series Annie?
Why fhe early 12th century?
Because the story came back from the Near East with returning Templars.
That is why Wolfram von Eschenbach starts his story in Mesopotamia,
….with the father of Perceval working for King Barus (King Abgarus of Edessa).
The conception story of Arthur is copied from the conception of Hercules.
…just to confirm that Arthur is a demi-god.
