Loose translation of the article "Arthur (Artus)" from Catherine Rager's "Dictionnaire des fées et des peuples invisibles dans l'Occident païen" (Dictionary of fairies and invisible people in the Pagan Occident).
ARTHUR (Artus)
Mythical king of a cycle of romans, the tales of the Round Table, also known as the Matter of Britain, which blossomed throughout all of Europe from the 12th to the 15th centuries. Among those texts, we find numerous romans by Chrétien de Troyes, and The History of the Kings of Britain by Geoffroy of Monmouth, alongside its very loose translation Le Roman de Brut by Wace, itself rewrote by the priest Layamon in his poem Brut, and later, by Malory in his La Mort d'Arthur. Arthur was originally a historical warlord killed around 537 at the battle of Camlann, but he then became a super-human character identified to another Arthur, the great god of the pantheon of the Britons, and thus symbolizing the fight of the old kings of Great-Britain against the Saxon invaders.
The father of Arthur is the king Uter Pendragon who, despite his human appearance, seems to be a figuration of an Underworld king. He claims to be Constantine's descendant - the Celts, during this era, were Romanized. Arthur's half-sister is the fairy Morgane. As for his wife, the incomparable Guenievre ou Guinevere, her name means in its Welsh form (Gwenhwyfar, Gwenhwyvar) "white spirit", "white ghost". Some considered that Guenievre, who is recurringly kidnapped, is a resurgence of the Greek goddess Persephone. Their son, Llacheu, has the gift of second-sight/clearsight, as he knows the secret of material elements and of nature.
The relationships between Arthur and the Otherworld make him a magical character. In the roman of the Saxon Layamon, Brut, we see elves assist to his birth and gift him - he will be powerful, wealthy, generous and have a long life.
As many other heroes, Arthur receives his sword, Excalibur, from a supernatural creature. It is the Lady of the Lake that offers it to him. Indeed, the weapon he took away from its rock had been broken during a previous battle. Merlin, to replace it, brought the king to the shore of a lake, where an arm with white silk came out of the water, offering him the magical sword ornate with dragons - it is Excalibur, the Caladbolg of the Irish Fergus, a sword forged in Avallon. Before his death, the king will task sir Bedevere with bringing back Excalibur to the lake, where the mysterious arm appears again out of the water and takes it back. The Lady of the Lake always offers her protection to the king.
Arthur rides a black horse, a color associated to the realm of the dead: he can, as such, cross the waters that separate the afterlife from the realm of the living without his horse going wild with terror. The Book of Taliesin, a Welsh text of the 13th century, tells how the king went to the Underworld and brought back from it a magical cauldron (prefiguration of the Grail) which offers to knights an endless supply of food, but stays empty for the cowards.
Arthur is a purifying hero who gets rid of the monsters that plague the universe, just like Hercules, Theseus, Finn mac Cumhail or Cûchulainn. His first exploit was to kill the boar Twrch Trwyth which was ravaging Wales (Mabinogion of Kulwch and Olwen).
Once king, Arthur represents a solar-themed strength and wisdom. Advised by Merlin the enchanter, he establishes a rule of peace and justice (for twelve years according to some, for forty according to others), and presides at Carduel the Round Table, whose nature confirms that Arthus is both belonging to the supernatural, and an image of the Sun. His court can be found at Camelot - which might be Cadbury Castle, in the Somerset, but is before all the idealized town, the perfect city, the seat of knowledge, poetry and alchemy. The court keeps moving depending on the tales. The lord regularly sends his knights fight for just causes (and, after the Christianization of the legend, for the quest of the Grail containing the blood of the Christ), but himself rarely appears as a warrior. He sometimes even appears to figure a god of war who is above the mere battle, similarly to the goddess Badb.
For a marvelous life, a prodigious end: in his Vita Merlini, Geoffroy of Monmouth tells how the king, killed by the treacherous Mordred, his nephew and likely incestuous son, is carried on a magical boat by fairies that came from the Atlantic (where the realm of the dead is located). He is accompanied there by the Lady of the Lake and by three queens: the queen of Northern Wales, the queen of the Terre Gaste, and Morgane. Healed of his wounds by the latter, he stays with her, the Lady of the Lake, and their six sister-fairies, in the island of Avallon, "The Isle of Apples", which is sometimes a name for the Sidh/realm of the fairies, sometimes synonymous with the Blessed Islands or Fortune Isles. In Layamon's Brut, it is elves that take to Avallon the dead king, and it is the elf-queen Argante that brings him back to life. In truth, he returned to the place he belongs to, this Otherworld where there is no death, no suffering, no decadence, but only youth, feast and joy. His people hope for his messianic return, either in times of war, or simply so that he can offer them wise advice. In Cornwall, king Arthur supposedly appears in the shape of a black bird with red-colored beak and claws.
Old texts from which Rabelais took his inspiration mixed together the legend of king Arthur and the one of the giant Gargantua.
In Guillaume Apollinaire's burlesque "Arthur roi passé roi futur" (Arthur, king past, king future, 1914), king Arthur returns, wearing a shining armor, to Buckingham Palace where Georges IX is ruling. After having tested the authenticity of the ghost, Georges IX abdicates and lets the throne return to the old lord of England.
J’adore abattre des cloisons. Le maillet destructeur dans la main.
Des amis déménagent, ils vont casser des pans entiers.
Je fais pareil mais avec la vie.
Avant, les lectures effrénées, les forums RPG, geekette absolue, amoureuse de MARVEL, Tony & Loki, une vie d’intérieur, pacha en pantoufles à attendre je-ne-sais-quoi ou plutôt un qui résolument décevant à vingt ans. Me gaver de films comme de pop corn. Une fille candide, il faut le dire, romantique dark cherchant dandy. Des mélodies vaguement échouées sur les touches d’un piano mélancolique. Je me complaisais dans une tristesse joyeuse, comptant les nuages entre amis.
Après vient le changement radical. Je pensais à tort que sortir de mes rêveries infantiles serait le début de la fin. C’est brut, drastique, une balle de plomb au plexus solaire, un coup vertigineux. Apprendre à composer avec le monde réel, désillusion fatidique. L’administratif, les responsabilités, les devoirs, le jeu des pouvoirs, valse qui dérange, à contre tempo. Les rencontres fastes, l’accomplissement, l’apprentissage. Le percer à jour, l’ajouter au panier, c’est comme ça que l’on fait dans la modernité. Aucun regret chaque jour, avancer ensemble, nos émois qui déferlent interminablement et nos intempéries de couple, nos orages et nos éclaircies quotidiens. On se pense toujours au-dessus de ça, mais il nous arrive de frotter des cordes sensibles. De les cramer. Et de les renouer. Inlassablement.
J’ai évolué (j’espère dans le bon sens).
Ma version 2.0 s’improvise chef en cuisine, ne digère plus que le sain, se la joue agence de voyages, se passionne pour la psychologie humaine, se cogne à son éducation médiévale, se sociabilise aisément, écrit une fois par an pendant trente jours, se forge une silhouette en salle de fitness, avale toujours films et séries (reels et quelques chaînes Youtube), apprivoise la nature, ne se débarrasse pas de son enfant en intra, joue encore quelques airs et surtout, n’attend plus rien d’autrui ou de l’univers pour lui dicter ce qu’elle veut faire. Elle agit, enfante et accouche de ses idées loufoques, elle bricole l’amour à sa façon, pas de méthode plus miraculeuse qu’une autre, c’est un amour artisanal qui est né.

I’ve been experimenting with shapes, handle material and grinds.
Top is a convex grind with a laminate handle. Middle is a hawkbill with linen micarta and the bottom is a a brut de forge with maple. All blades are forged from 5160 spring steel.

Le Nakiri est couteau traditionnel japonais pour la découpé des légumes.
contrairement au Usuba, le Nakiri est une lame double biseau, c’est à dire fabriqué comme un sandwich d’acier tendre enveloppant un coeur dur d’acier pour le tranchant. Le Nakiri est le couteau le plus utilisé par les ménages japonais qui ont +60 ans, peu à peu remplacé par le santoku ou le bunka dans les maisons modernes. Il est encore fortement apprécie des amateurs de lames pour son caractère brut de forge lui donnant une esthétique noir.
Les fabricants les plus connus de Nakiri traditionnels sont Kasahara Shigehiro, Ikeda Yoshikazu, Ikeda Tatsuo et la marque DeSakai

1. LaM
Longhand this is called the Lille Métropole Museum of Modern, Contemporary and Outsider Art. And it is an extraordinary museum, presenting every important movement in art in the 20th and 21st centuries.
There are epochal pieces by artists like Picasso, Miró, Kandinsky, Modigliani, Fernand Léger and Georges Braque.
They are supported by a sculpture garden and a wing to the Art Brut movement from the early decades of the 20th century: If you want to see some people out there, then this section has authored of paintings. self-taught academics and visionary artists He believes that they can communicate with other worlds.
2. Parc du Héron
A generous 110-hectare natural space next to the LaM, the Parc du Héron has meadows beside a large lake. If you’re wondering about the park’s name it’s because this is a regional nature reserve for herons, and you’ll have no trouble spotting this species on the shores of the lake.
Herons are also just one of 235 bird species in the park, among them European orioles, cuckoos, doves, and chickadees. There’s also an educational farm here, the Ferme du Héron, with donkeys, a handful of raptors and several flightless birds.
3. Château de Flers
Villeneuve-d'Ascq tourist office is located in an interesting Flemish-style mansion built-in 1661. It encapsulates the region’s architecture, right down to the crow-stepped gables. Check out the coffered wooden ceilings inside and the lovely 18th-century arcaded gallery that opens out onto the gardens.
In all, it’s a superb way to start your visit to Villeneuve-d’Ascq. There are occasional temporary programs about the former town, and on heritage days, the entire building is opened for tours.
4. Musée de Plein Air
A classic open-air museum, this attraction features 23 traditional rural houses saved from demolition and moved here in the 1990s to form a small village. These buildings came from several provinces in the north of France, like Artois, Picardy, French Flanders, and Hainaut, and the oldest building goes back to the 1500s.
You’ll get up to speed the Nord-Pas-de-Calais region’s diverse rural heritage in a bucolic environment of thatched cottages, vegetable patches, animal enclosures and workshops for various villages crafts. There is also a Flemish beer pub on the site that cooks traditional stews.
5. Musée du Terroir
Another museum that keeps you in touch with these new days is this 18th-century farm, listed as a historical French site. It’s a snapshot of domestic post-War life in the region, so there’s laundry, schoolroom, forge, dairy, kitchen and workshops for saddling and clog-making.
Like all the local museums the Musée du Terroir insists on children getting involved: They can try ironing with cast irons, hammering tools at the forge, taking an apprenticeship as a carpenter and making traditional Flemish waffles.
6. Musée des Moulins
In the Cousinerie district, the Musée des Moulins has two 18th-century windmills. One was for oil and the other for flour, and both were brought to this site in the 70s and 80s to be opened to visitors.
With modern exhibits, you’ll be presented with all the technical aspects of flour milling and oil production. You'll also make a small trip through milling history, from new whetstone to modern wheels and rollers.
Children will explore all the forces harnessed to make flour, such as manpower and animal power in the early days, and then water, wind, steam, and gas.
7. Forum Départemental des Sciences
This cultural center, run by the Nord Department, is unusual as it deals with matters of science and technology rather than art. The center is aimed mainly at kids and aims to fire their curiosity for the world around them.
There is a huge exhibition space available only for temporary exhibitions that are updated every few months. These are all cleverly curated and handle anything from police forensics to prehistoric mammoths and sustainability.
The galleries are complemented by a planetarium with the three shows on Saturdays and Sundays and two on Wednesdays.
8. Asnapio
Right on the Parc du Héron is another edifying outdoor museum. This one is devoted to archaeology and has recreated historic dwellings ranging from a Palaeolithic tent to a medieval farmstead.
The attraction has been built using information discovered at the many archaeological sites in the region, one right in Villeneuve d’Ascq where a Gallo-Roman farm was unearthed.
The grandest of the buildings is the Roman Villa, but every one of them has something going on: Kids can try on armor, taste medieval food, have a go at archery and watch demonstrations of historic crafts.
9. Mémorial Ascq 1944
This museum recalls a dark episode about the end of German occupation in France. After the railway line in Ascq had been sabotaged, the retribution by the SS was brutal, and 86 people were executed.
The displays in the museum chart the village of Ascq’s journey through the 20th century: You'll start with World War I, and then learned about reconstruction, World War II, the years under occupation and finally building the climate until the April 1 in 1944.
Near the railway track, there’s a memorial completed in 1955 to commemorate the site of the massacre.
10. Lille OSC
The city’s football team is based in Villeneuve-d’Ascq at the new Stade Pierre-Mauroy. The 50,186-capacity stadium, like this church, was built in 2012 and hosted six matches in EURO 2016.
Lille plays in Ligue 1, the highest division in French football, and even won the championship in 2011. Since then the team has been up and down, and as matches rarely sell out you should have no trouble getting a ticket to see “Les Dogues” during the season from August to May.
In 2017, things will become even more unpredictable when ruthless Argentine coach Marcelo Bielsa will come to power in June.
