Episode 4: The Work of Chrétien de Troyes: The Knight with the Lion Of Swords and Magic

Episode 4 is a continuation of our discussion of Chretien de Troyes’ Arthurian Romances, with "The Knight with the Lion". The first story on record of Sir Yvain, this tale includes everything from love and betrayal, to lions and dragons, to the meaning of loyalty. Join me for a 3-hour storytelling packed with action, magical springs and the strongest of love from unexpected places.
