| Research Abstract |
The Dragon episodes in the Arthurian Chronicles represent ethnological hegemony, and because of his father's name, Pendragon, King Arthur tends to be regarded as a bearer of dragon devices. However, early Welsh sources before Geoffrey of Monmouth's Historia Regum Britanniae, tend not to assign the dragon emblem to Arthur, but instead to another Welsh hero.
Various Arthurian romances were produced in and around the north-west of England at the turn of the fifteenth century. This paper argues that these romances require reading within a manuscript context based on reception theory, and points out that Arthurian legends were utilized variously in order to establish dynastic legitimacy but also functioned as assurances of local and domestic stability.
