Sir Lancelot and Courtly Love

Posted on by

Sir Lancelot and Those who Disdain Courtly Love

Think how different things would have been if Sir Lancelot had kept his dirty hands off Guinevere and adhered to the concepts of courtly love. But he didn´t. He ignored them and by allowing himself to be ensnared by Guinevere, he brought chaos that led to the death of King Arthur and the end of the order of Knights of Round Table. (He was also the cause of the death of the flaky Lady of Shalott although to be fair to him, it was not his fault.)

There is a debate over whether courtly love was a concept in which a knight idealized and idolized a lady from a distance or whether it had a physical dimension. Did he spend his time worshipping her and imagining the unattainable erotic delights he was missing or did he bed her? Was he a pure hearted idealist or a lecher who was ready to turn another man into a cuckold? The object of the knight´s passion was usually the wife of his lord or sovereign so by entering into a sexual relationship with her, he was not only breaking the sacred bonds of matrimony but betraying his oath of allegiance and committing treason.

Remember this ISACers the next time you are tempted to fondle or grope another man´s dearest.

  2. Never mind all that – I want a word with whichever fker threw my sword in the lake – they need to have Avalong hard think about their conduct!
    (I would have gone in for it but I was wearing my best socks) 😃

  3. Perhaps Professor Neil Fergicunt & Boris Johnson need to read that Admin provided link.

    I may have many faults, fidelity is not one of them.
    Fidelity and the respect for the sacred bonds of love and lawful marriage were the cornerstone of British society.
    It’s no coincidence that as the sanctity of marriage has been replaced with a revolving door of quick relationships, numerous children by numerous fathers an acceptable norm, society has regressed back to the dark ages.

    Back on track:
    I love Cornwall, in particular the rugged West coast. Tintsgel is a wonderful place, when the tourists dissipate, the beach under the cliffs and the “Merlins cave”, under the rock on which Tintsgel castle sits-well, it is easy to see how one could be caught up in all the romance!

    Back in the early 90’s my now wife and I were-we enjoyed one of my most memorable shags in that cave-the crash of the waves, the warm setting sun….I can highly recommend it 😀

      • Ah Tintagel. I holidayed there as a child when I believed in the Arthurian legend. Marvellous. A shag in Merlin’s cave is also a good way of celebrating such a romantic myth:)

      • I have a lovely photo of my wife from that day, she had drawn a huge love heart in the sand, with our initials in it. She is standing barefoot in the sand, sandals in hand, smiling.
        She has on a lovely summery dress, red with cream dots and her long brown hair, caught by a sea breeze.
        Rings a tear to the eye-and a stir to the loins👍

    • There is a small brewery at Tintagel which does a range of very fine ales and has a small restaurant attached. Well worth a visit should you find yourself in the area.

  4. If she wasn’t married then she’s fair game.
    Otherwise the knight’s knackers would have exploded.
    Then no Crusades.

  5. Sorry Mr.Polly,but undertaking the “noble quest” of stuffing a few SNP pamphlets through a couple of doors in The Gorbals doesn’t make you Robert the Bruce or Nicola Sturgeon a “fair Lady”.
    I really can’t see Wee Nicola giving in to your amorous advances no matter how righteous your quest…for a start,she prefers fish-taco to beef-broadsword plus I’m not really sure that she’s the type to go along with the concept of “knightly honour’. No good trying to take your prize by force either,I fear….she’s liable to kick your head in before you can get yer codpiece unbuckled.

    Best just stick to sending those mucky photos of yourself to the SNP Offices and hope that (Lady) Nicola gets them rather than (King) Alex Salmond.

    • “Geteth thine gums aroundeth mine plums,” romantically bellowed the red faced Sir Richard de Fiddlere to the fair maiden, Lady Gemma of Arterton, “and beeth quick about it for I have supped much ale and mead and fear I must soon pebbledash mine armoured pantaloons.”

      • Can’t complain, Dick. Still holidays here and humid as fuck. Still not a single case of the lurgy where I live.

        Enjoy Tier 5.

  6. Good nom mr Polly.
    Being faithful, keeping your hands off others wives,
    Lancelot was creeping about in the knight and betraying his vows and his leige!
    Arthur, the once and future king!!
    Lancelot strikes me as the type who used too much hair gel,
    And Guinevere a readers wives type,
    A dark ages Rose west.
    Its not chivalrous to keep your hands off another man’s wife just common sense.
    Arthur should have given them both a taste of Excalibur.
    Thrown the bodies in the lake.
    His son Modred killed Arthur,
    Kids eh?
    Ungrateful little bastards.

  8. Obviously I’m dreaming about ISAC?

    I think the point of courtly love was meant to underline the fact women are mercenary cunts who can’t be trusted. The more civilised of men realised only by developing chivalry and acting honourably could they avoid the carnage a woman can cause.

    However this requires a man with the will power to deny his little head from doing his thinking, we all know at times the trouser snake can take control of Eden. The forbidden fruit can be the most tempting.

    Young boys should be educated from an early age about the perils of pussy.

  9. I’m a renaissance man who has read up on a lot of history and actually believe the best way to start a relationship with a lady is to start slowly and take small steps. This is very important if you want her to be a long term partner or your wife…romantic chivalry is the way to make a woman truly love you as it ticks all their boxes they dreamt abaaaaaht when younger. What you have to remember is that you won’t get any pussy whilst all this courting is going on so make sure you have one or preferably two on the side to fulfill any requirements whilst awaiting the prize. When you finally get the prize make up for lost time and fuck her every night and twice on Sunday’s.
    Go fuck yourselves.

  11. There are a number of fine and instructive works on the subject. “Le Morte d’Arthur” by Thomas Malory, “The Lady of Shalott” by Alfred Tennyson, and “Yvain, the Knight of the Lion” by Chretien de Troyes, to name but three. However my favourite is the somewhat later epic, “Up the Chastitiy Belt” by Francis Howerd.

    • Indeed-that didn’t end well😢.
      Her being pictured snogging the lead singer of American “cherry-pop” band “The Lemonheads”, Evan Dando, eeeks after the event, didn’t help her reputation 👎
      Evan took a lot of stick-so had a T-shirt made with “Evil Dildo” on the front-you have to give the lad credit for that😀👍

      • Cuntney Love is a known slag and smackhead, CG. She was a groupie of many bands including the Teardrop Explodes (although Julian Cope hated her). She eventually became Cobain’s groupie and then elevated herself to his wife. Kurt was both damaged and gullible and the other two members of Nirvana despised her and they still do. She milked his suicide with her screaming theatrics on MTV and went through several blokes as Kurt’s blown out brains were still being cleaned up.

        One of Love’s conquests was the coked up cunt that is Steve Coogan. Does this man have any taste or self respect?

      • Shame you didn’t give coogan a proper “shoe-ing” when he was in 90’s Madchester.

      • I’ll Stick Around by Foo Fighters
        Professional Widow by Tori Amos
        Both written about Courtney Love, neither of them complimentary, which shows what a cunt she was and probably still is

      • What Lennon said about My Sweet Lord and its court case was funny. He spoke of Harrison’s total stupidity, and that all he had to do was change a couple of bars in the song and nobody could touch him.

        When asked why George didn’t do that, John replied, ‘Fuck knows. Maybe he thought his god would let him off or something’.

      • Norm-he was probably too busy sniffing around Phil Spectors wife, Ronnie (of the Ronettes)

    • The funny thing is Norman. It was Courtney Love dumping Steve Coogan because he was ‘Too much of a child’.
      I’ve seen Courtney Love’s arse, by the way.

      It is spotty.

  14. Sir Lancelot, eh? Just as well that the dirty froggie cunt never existed.

    But I agree. One should never jump a mate’s bird, no matter how much of a slag she is. The Rolling Stones are a case in point: both those cunts Mick and Keef tubbed Brian’s girlfriend, the Pallenberg slut.

    And didn’t George Harrison also have his evil way with Ringo’s first wife? So much for all that holy man bollocks he came out with. What a philandering cunt.

    • I recall John Lennon admitting he fancied Pattie Boyd, but he said he never hit on her, because she was a mate’s wife. John said it would be like ‘virtual incest’.

      But George Harrison screwed Maureen Starkey and when Ringo kicked off, George said ‘What’s all the fuss about? It’s just another woman’.

      But a mate’s old lady? And with all that karma shite he preached? Not even Macca was that much of a cunt.

      • Don’t forget, George was a tight cunt:

        -has his brothers working as gardeners, rather than letting them live in the workers cottages rent free👎

        -claimed to be happy to be meeting “my sweet lord*”, yet spent hundreds of thousands, jetting around the world trying any quack treatment available.

        -registered himself as a Swiss national to avoid paying death duties.

        * his big solo hit, which he plagiarised completely from The Ronettes “He’s so fine”.

  15. What the ferk is all this about? Shagging other men’s women? Only one thing to say about that, get ’em stuffed. You only live once, despite what the Imams tell you.
