WORD BUILDING
Arthur owed his STRENGTH to a wizard named Merlin.
So what is this LEGENDARY king famous for?
Under his magical GUIDANCE, the king defeated all his enemies.
The legend of King Arthur written by Geoffrey Monmouth was intended to be a HISTORICAL document.
There are a lot of stories about how cruel those FIGHTS were.
Historically, Britons stayed in Wales, away from Saxons, and the Saxons were hardly interested in the FOREIGN leader.
Yet, Arthur is often described as a warrior, which means he spent a lot of time at WAR.
The story about King Arthur has a romantic side. It was Arthur's beautiful wife that added ROMANCE to the legend.

FILL IN THE GAP
1. Becoming the knight of the round table was the highest honour a knight could be given.
2. It's a round table where the noblest knights sat together with King Arthur.
3. The knight who intended to have a seat among Arthur's favourites would have to strictly follow the code of chivalry, he would have to strive for perfection at all moments, be kind and loving to others, show righteousness in his actions, and maintain an untarnished character.
4. Most scholars claim that Camelot was only a legend, a product of symbolic fiction, and the utopia of the perfect kingdom.

Is Field alone in his research?
No, Field is not alone; other researchers are also investigating the Arthurian legend and its historical basis.
