How is the poem lady of shallot related to king Arthur?

Answer 1

Sir Lancelot doesn't really do anything in the Lady of Shallot: he passes by the Lady's window, and she sees him passing by:- that's it.

The whole point of The Lady of Shallott is that nothing happens in it. Nothing ever happens in Shallott - that is why the Lady is so poisonously bored:

"I am half-sick of shadows," said

The Lady of Shallott.

So Sir Lancelot is not chivalrous, nor unchivalrous: nothing is real inside the four grey walls and four grey towers: it is a limbo, with no opportunity for human qualities of any kind.

Answer 2

The poem "Lady of Shalott" by Alfred, Lord Tennyson is loosely related to King Arthur through its setting and themes. The Lady of Shalott is often seen as a symbol of the isolation and sacrifice that comes with pursuing artistic or romantic fulfillment, which echoes some of the themes found in Arthurian legend, such as love, honor, and tragedy. Additionally, the Lady of Shalott's eventual departure from her tower and her tragic end can be interpreted as a reflection of Guinevere's story in some versions of the Arthurian legend.

Answer 3

In the poem by Alfred, Lord Tennyson, the Lady of Shallot falls in love with Sir Lancelot when she see him in her mirror as he rides down into Camelot.

Here are the two verses from the poem which describe the event:

--------------

His broad clear brow in sunlight glow'd;

On burnish'd hooves his war-horse trode;

From underneath his helmet flow'd

His coal-black curls as on he rode,

As he rode down to Camelot.

From the bank and from the river

He flashed into the crystal mirror,

"Tirra lirra," by the river sang Sir Lancelot.

She left the web, she left the loom;

She made three paces thro' the room,

She saw the water-lily bloom,

She saw the helmet and the plume,

She look'd down to Camelot.

Out flew the web and floated wide;

The mirror crack'd from side to side;

"The curse is come upon me,"cried The Lady of Shalott.
