—from The Book of Romance by Andrew Lang (1844–1912). The Scottish novelist, poet, essayist, anthropologist and folklorist, Lang, had a prolific career, but he is perhaps best remembered for his renderings of classical fairy tales and legends. Aside from the King Arthur’s famous accoutrement, the sword Excalibur, Sir Lancelot’s repeated defenses and his secret love for Queen Guinevere is perhaps the most enduring image of Camelot. There is more than a little irony that Camelot is often used as an example of an idealized ruling family, considering the love affair that ensues between Lancelot and his Queen.
