As he searches for her, he meets a mysterious knight who is riding a fine but exhausted horse. The unknown knight takes one of Gawain's spare horses and rides off, with Gawain following. After some distance, Gawain finds his horse dead of exhaustion, having been ridden to death, and continues on until he finds the knight again on foot. The knight is standing next to a cart.] [The damsel tells the knights the fate of the Queen: : "In truth, my lords, Meleagant, a tall and powerful knight, son of the King of Gorre, has taken her off into the kingdom whence no foreigner returns, but where he must perforce remain in servitude and banishment." The damsel also tells the knights that there are only two ways to enter Melagant's country: an underwater bridge and a sword bridge. Gawain chooses to cross by the underwater bridge. The knights separate. The mysterious knight comes to a castle and is welcomed by a damsel who is its mistress.] Lancelot leaves the damsel and has many adventures on his way to Meleagant's kingdom. Eventually he reaches the Sword Bridge, one of the two ways to enter Meleagant's kingdom.]

Each romance contains several models of knighthood, although I will only look at those from three of the above works, Erec and Enide Yvain and Lancelot Erec Erec starts off being less than the ideal knight, but throughout the romance he learns what is needed to be a good ruler and husband. Initially he is described as having "mout grant los en la cort", (l 84) and of being very handsome. "Mout estoit beax et prouz et genz, Erec et Enide , ll 89-92) Erec is shown to think about himself, but not about others. He realises that the knight with the dwarf would kill him if he struck the evil dwarf who was obstructing him thereby showing that he can look ahead for consequences well enough, and can act with a sense of measure.

As the hunting party moves on ahead, Erec and the Queen chance upon a "armored knight on a charger," accompanied by a "fine looking maiden," and a dwarf, "who was very evil and baseborn." The confrontation is an ugly one; "Folly is not prowess; / in this Erec acted very wisely: / he withdrew...", but after reflection resolves to follow the knight and avenge himself. 275 Erec left the queen and followed the knight. And the queen remained in the woods, where the king had caught up with the stag: at the taking of the stag 280 the king arrived before any of the others. They killed and took the white stag. All started back, carrying the stag as they went; they arrived at cardigan. 285 After the evening meal, when the nobles were joyful throughout the house, the king, according to the tradition, since he had taken the stag, said that he would bestow the kiss 290 in order to observe the tradition of the stag. Throughout the court there was much muttering: They promised and swore to one another that this would never be done without contention by means of sword or lance of ash-wood. 295 Each one wanted, by deeds of arms, to contend that his lady was the most beautiful in the hall; these words did not bode well; When my lord Gawain heard this, You may be sure that he was not at all pleased. Chretien, de Troyes.

    Extractions: Explorations in Arthurian Legends A Literature Review Part 1: Chretien de Troyes Previous discussions have focused on writers who have attempted to portray Arthur as historical in nature. We have seen that no matter how hard these writers try, they cannot help but invent conventions because they have so little to go on. Still, their Arthur was a figure of history whose deeds could be rooted in things that actually happened and places that could conceivably be identified. Geoffrey of Monmouth started the fiction ball rolling with his History of the Kings of Briton, which introduced many fanciful notions, including the idea that Britain had never been conquered by the Romans. Wace introduced the idea of courtly love. It was up to his fellow Frenchmen to elaborate on this theme. We start with the towering giant, Chretien de Troyes. We have seen that earlier tales of Arthur drew on Welsh tales and the events of the times of the writers to portray Arthur differently. Geoffrey of Monmouth has given us the begetting and birth of Arthur at Tintagel and Arthur's marriage to Guinevere (though he calls her Ganhumara). Wace has given us the

    Extractions: Chretien de Troyes, Arthurian Romances (Everyman's Library, 1991) Out of his desperate passion for Queen Guinevere, Lancelot accepts shame without hesitation and crawls on naked hands and knees across a bridge made of a single sword. Like an earlier Juliet, Fenice drinks a potion and pretends death to escape her marriage and be with Cliges, her true love. Yvain and his faithful lion fight against demons to prove their honor and rescue the original "damsels in distress." Behind them all sits the awesome figure of the great Arthur, "the good king of Britain, whose noble qualities teach us that we ourselves should be honorable and courtly." These stories and their embellishments come from the fervid imagination of Chretien de Troyes, one of the fathers of Arthurian legend (For those of us who don't speak French, his name is most easily pronounced "Kray-tee-en doo Twah"). Arthur never cut such a splendid figure on the literary scene before de Troyes wrote his Romances in the twelfth century, and it is arguably due to de Troyes that Camelot is a household name to this day. This Everyman's Library edition of de Troyes' work contains the romances Erec and Enide Cliges Lancelot Yvain , and the incomplete Percival , all in a "new" (1986) translation from the Old French. Geared toward students, it also contains a select bibliography, a glossary, and translator's notes.
