“…seems
more and more to have a foundation in history.” (Wilhelm, pg. 1).
This chapter seemed to be a
glorification of Arthur’s, along with the other Saxon’s, actions during the many
battles that they had been through. The reason put the quote above is because
of how well t describes the past writings about Arthur. The book even mentions
how vague about the events of how it took place. It reads much more like a
story and less like as actual historical events being told in a textbook. For
example, they talk about how the recuperate their courage between the battles.
What exactly did that even look like? This is why I personally believe that
Arthur was not a real person but rather someone based on someone else. I love
how over the top they describe Arthur in the story since it is epic and
ridiculous. They even mention the part where Arthur slashes through an entire
army of people.
