Old Oct 18th, 2006, 10:06 PM        Arthurian Legends
I was a huge fan of Arthurian legends back in middle school. Right now that I'm always whimsing about stories I'd like to write, I find myself regressing to the style of writing employed by Malory and Chretiens de Troyes. So, I've been from time to time wikipedia-ing various legends I vaguely remember, and I really really miss having known them all by heart. I remember my favorites were always the Hunt for Twrch Trwyth (hence my remark in GB about my hating Gaelic spelling), Arthur's war on Rome (which taught me the Middle English word "genytours" when Arthur castrated a giant), Gawaine and the Green Knight, and of course the Battle of Camlann.

Anybody else ever been under its spell?
