"Arthur Kuningas ja hänen jalot ritarinsa" by Sir Thomas Malory is a collection of Arthurian legends written in the late 15th century. This work serves as a significant retelling and assembly of stories surrounding King Arthur, his rise to power, and the adventures of his knights at the Round Table, including their quests for honor and the elusive Holy Grail. The tales encompass a wide array of characters, with a focus on Arthur, Merlin, Lancelot, and Guinevere, weaving themes of chivalry, betrayal, and destiny. The opening of this collection introduces the legend of King Arthur, beginning with the circumstances surrounding his birth and eventual rise to kingship. Following the death of his father, King Uther Pendragon, England finds itself in turmoil, as various lords vie for the throne. In a series of divine interventions, Merlin the wizard plays a crucial role by hiding Arthur until the time is right for him to rule. The narrative progresses as Arthur retrieves the famed sword from the stone, a feat that confirms his rightful claim to the throne, leading to his coronation and the initial conflicts with other nobles who challenge his legitimacy. The beginning sets a tone of mystical events and introduces the central conflict that will unfold as Arthur gathers his knights and strives to unite the kingdom.
