Comments by Lauren Murphy Most recent public comments by Lauren Murphy https://nowcomment.com/users/23803 I'm confused about this sentence. Is it referring to Arthur or someone else? https://nowcomment.com/documents/62488?scroll_to=593795 https://nowcomment.com/documents/62488?scroll_to=593795 Wed, 12 Oct 2016 22:11:11 -0400 I agree that they disapproved because Arthur did not come from noble blood. This may have given the kings a reason to question Arthur's ability to remove the sword from the stone and to be a good king as well. https://nowcomment.com/documents/62488?scroll_to=593787 https://nowcomment.com/documents/62488?scroll_to=593787 Wed, 12 Oct 2016 22:08:44 -0400 I don't know for sure, but I think these people were definitely wise people that he approved of. They may have been close to him, especially Sir Kay because he was mentioned earlier. https://nowcomment.com/documents/62488?scroll_to=593784 https://nowcomment.com/documents/62488?scroll_to=593784 Wed, 12 Oct 2016 22:06:29 -0400 Who was the king before Arthur? https://nowcomment.com/documents/62488?scroll_to=593775 https://nowcomment.com/documents/62488?scroll_to=593775 Wed, 12 Oct 2016 22:02:30 -0400 So even though Arthur demonstrated his ability to pull the sword out of the stone several times, they delayed crowning him as king? https://nowcomment.com/documents/62488?scroll_to=592654 https://nowcomment.com/documents/62488?scroll_to=592654 Wed, 12 Oct 2016 11:14:11 -0400 You make a good point, but I think they are trying to persuade him to do certain things. Because they raised him and fostered him, they are kind of taking the approach that as a repayment, they should make Sir Kay Seneschal of all the lands. https://nowcomment.com/documents/62488?scroll_to=592632 https://nowcomment.com/documents/62488?scroll_to=592632 Wed, 12 Oct 2016 11:11:37 -0400 I'm confused about this sentence. I think he is trying to say that he can not be Arthur's father because Arthur is greater and better than him. https://nowcomment.com/documents/62488?scroll_to=592598 https://nowcomment.com/documents/62488?scroll_to=592598 Wed, 12 Oct 2016 11:01:58 -0400 This is an example of a characteristic of an epic hero because Arthur is great since he can do things that other people can not. https://nowcomment.com/documents/62488?scroll_to=592582 https://nowcomment.com/documents/62488?scroll_to=592582 Wed, 12 Oct 2016 10:59:26 -0400 I agree that this is an example of situational irony because Arthur completed the task with such ease while others struggled immensely. https://nowcomment.com/documents/62488?scroll_to=592561 https://nowcomment.com/documents/62488?scroll_to=592561 Wed, 12 Oct 2016 10:55:20 -0400 I know that pulling the sword out of the stone was a symbol of strength and was highly praised, but why was it so important in this time period? What made someone who pulled the sword out so special? https://nowcomment.com/documents/62488?scroll_to=592544 https://nowcomment.com/documents/62488?scroll_to=592544 Wed, 12 Oct 2016 10:53:23 -0400
