Book excerpt: Equally honorable, brave, and noble was King Frederick I, called “Barbarossa” for his prominent red beard. He ruled twelfth century Germany when it was a feudal kingdom, a time of darkness and intrigue. As Arthur sought the Holy Grail, Frederick sought the Holy Lance, the spear that pierced Christ’s side as he hung on the cross. A chivalrous king who thirsted for justice, Frederick confronted wild beasts, defeated evil barons, razed his enemy’s castles, and crusaded to the Holy Land. Guided by the Rhine-maiden prophetess, Lorelei, he achieved greatness while earning the love of his people. Like Arthur's Knights of the Round Table, Frederick surrounded himself with stout-hearted warriors. The greatest was the courageous Duke of Saxony, Henry the Lion. Yet, like all men who achieve glory, Frederick faced jealously and betrayal. In the year 1190, rumors sang the King’s demise in the torrents of a far off river. But soon, legends arose that Frederick merely sleeps in a cave deep in the Kyffhauser Mountains. His return awaits until the ravens cease to fly.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: … Here are three who will come and go and one who will stay forever … Aboard Floki Magnusson’s longship Silver Dragon, Gil, Danni, Rachel and Ismail continue their quest. Hunted by the Golden Knight, they find shelter at the muinntir of Hy where Lionheart endures the blacksmith, and Gil learns of the Lady Janetta’s imprisonment in Camelot. When the Raiders attack, the brethren ensure the children’s safety at the cost of their own and Gil vows to avenge them. But on the gruelling longship traverse of Glen Alban, a chaotic, mistaken battle shows him the price of vengeance. And on the Great Loch of Alba, a primeval terror changes the fate of all. Still, ahead, the road to Camelot climbs into the hills, and parting from the Northmen, the Warriors and their ponies journey on, with only the Knight Palamedes for guard. Then, deep in the Forest of Caledon, the sounding of the Questing Beast draws the Saracen knight away. Aided only by their Change-Thing Others, the Warriors yet achieve their goal and in the beautiful gardens of the Mews Tower Gil finds his green-eyed girl, as fearless as she is lovely, and companioned by a knightly Percy, Danni’s lost brother. Still many dangers must be faced and many trials endured before, together at last, they ride the forbidden Forest of Pentecost to claim the Grail. And behind them, the usurper’s forces close in, and before them the unearthly Guardian of the Chapel bars the way … … Come sail the sea-roads of Glen Alban and ride the high country of Caledon. Come with the Warriors to Camelot …

Download or read book Chivalric Stories as Children s Literature written by Velma Bourgeois Richmond and published by McFarland. This book was released on 2014-09-24 with total page 383 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Knights and ladies, giants and dragons, tournaments, battles, quests and crusades are commonplace in stories for children. This book examines how late Victorians and Edwardians retold medieval narratives of chivalry--epics, romances, sagas, legends and ballads. Stories of Beowulf, Arthur, Gawain, St. George, Roland, Robin Hood and many more thrilled and instructed children, and encouraged adult reading. Lavish volumes and schoolbooks of the era featured illustrated texts, many by major artists. Children's books, an essential part of Edwardian publishing, were disseminated throughout the English-speaking world. Many are being reprinted today. This book examines related contexts of Medievalism expressed in painting, architecture, music and public celebrations, and the works of major authors, including Sir Walter Scott, Tennyson, Longfellow and William Morris. The book explores national identity expressed through literature, ideals of honor and valor in the years before World War I, and how childhood reading influenced 20th-century writers as diverse as C. S. Lewis, J. R. R. Tolkien, Siegfried Sassoon, David Jones, Graham Greene, Ian Fleming and John Le Carre.
