A List: Knights of the Round Table
Now I won’t for a moment entertain the idea that there was a Round Table, or that Arthur’s knights followed the rules of a twelfth-century feminist instead of a fifth-century code of honor. On the other hand, Arthur did exist and he had to have warriors. In that spirit, I thought I would list off the list as some of the major writers knew it. I’ll do them without commentary and see what you find interesting:
