We need heroes, someone to take up the battle against injustice and villainy. Maidens want a rescue from tyrant and dragon.
The very idea of heroes and rescues comes from the Word of God. In our wonderful Lord we have the One who engages and defeats the Serpent and his host, the One who sets the marriage feast and comes for His Bride. All of this and more faithfully and excitingly resonate throughout the story of King Arthur. Honor, manner, character, expression and faith all are considered in this great work.
The CHC Reader’s Guide clarifies the story, helps us appreciate the author’s technique and shows how to analyze characters.
