Kong Arthur

Kong Arthur
Kong Arthur eller kong Artus var en britisk heltekonge, der ifølge legenden samlede briterne til kamp mod de invaderende anglere og saxere i det 6. århundrede efter Kristus. Omkring figuren Arthur fremvoksede en sagnkreds, med blandt andet hans rådgiver, troldmanden Merlin, sværdet Excalibur, heksen Morgan le fay, og hans ridderorden, ridderne af det runde bord der samles på kongeslottet Camelot.
I det 12. århundrede nedskrives adskillige versioner i Frankrig og Tyskland, med hovedvægten på Arthurs sidste tid, riddernes søgen efter den hellige gral, samt romancen mellem ridderen Lancelot og dronning Guenevere.
Persongalleriet er omfangsrigt, men af andre riddere kan nævnes Parsival, Tristan, Gawain og Galahad.
Arthur møder sit endeligt i kampen med hans uægte søn Mordred, hvor han bliver dødeligt såret, og derefter sejles til det magiske land Avalon.
