Excalibur: Sword in the Stone, Lady of the Lake & King Arthur as Ideal Leader (ft. Anna Bridgland)

Mythos & Logos

Thank you @Anna Bridgland for your amazing contribution! This video wouldn't be the same without your great work and talent.

We often don't stop to think about the details in the stories that we've heard the most. For hundreds of years, one of the most popular stories in the world has been that of King Arthur, but across countless versions, it can be easy to get lost in the differences and forget the symbolism at the story's core. Focusing on one element of Arthurian Legend, Arthur's sword, we can better understand the symbolic ideal of leadership which King Arthur represents.

Mythos & Logos are two ancient words that can be roughly translated as “Story & Meaning.”
