Mordred, Morgan, and Morgause

Mordred, Morgan, and the often-overlooked Morgause are the focus of this literary talk.

These Arthurian villainous figures have gone through many incarnations from the Middle Ages to the present day. In modern pop culture, however, they are often portrayed in very particular and somewhat caricatured ways.

Morgan especially is frequently cast in recent times as a kind of witch-queen, but was her role in the medieval Arthurian legends really so clear-cut?

Prepare to change your perception of these classic characters as Valdemar Rygaard Lenschow takes us deeper into the women of King Arthur’s world.
