Every year without fail, my students dive into Roger Lancelyn Green’s King Arthur and His Knights of the Round Table. By the time we finish studying the book, I start noticing other versions and spin-offs stacked on their desks. They don’t want the story to end, and neither do I.
Perhaps that’s the charm of the legend. It takes hold of our imagination and won’t let go. We keep coming back to the same questions: Could a Realm of Righteousness really exist? What if King Arthur was real? Is chivalry dead?
In tribute to the enthusiasm of my students, I have put together a series that describes my classical approach to teaching the legend of King Arthur. I hope it may prove useful to students, parents, teachers, and the fandom in general, who want to learn about this enduring legend.
The series is divided into the following segments:
I recommend you read each segment in order as I post them in the coming weeks to get the fullest understanding of my classical approach, and don’t hesitate to contact me with questions!
