   5 - The Saints, Satellites, and Sass Series, Part 1: Goeznovius (LSG, 1019 CE)

   Welcome to 🌈Queering Arthur👑, our fifth episode of the podcast, and first installment of the Saints, Satellites, and Sass series on Arthurian Hagiographies. Join us in exploring ✨queer interpretations🧠 of 🫅🏾The Life of St. Goeznovius📜. The Context for the episodes in this series was covered in previous episodes, but a deeper dive is available in member’s only episodes, available to knights of the virtual round table. Discussion includes: Potential controversial authorship according; historical relationship between Brittany and Wales due to limits of technology for travel; how authorities reinforce their powers through the norms they themselves establish (for example, legitimacy of children through Christian sacrament, Hindu caste system, Confucianism in imperial China, Nazi propaganda, racial segregation in the united states, and internalized homophobia in societies that make homophobia a cultural norm); potential controversy of the source of the text; demythologization of Arthurian legend as interpretation, or hermeneutic, that’s different from the queer hermeneutic we use in the podcast (and how Lin-Manuel Miranda’s Hamilton is similar to the queer hermeneutic). Analysis in the episode includes: Survival versus thrival and how queer thrival is of interest today when queer identity is more tolerated, accepted, and celebrated; horrifying evils of patriarchy as historical facts that motivated either ritual cannibalism done by women for revenge, or paranoia of men haunted by the nightmares of perpetuating the monstrous misogynistic violence (but the evil of patriarchy is queer in that it mirrors kink/bdsm in a non-consensual, harmful, disrespectful, and sexist way); the two-factor model of justice and subdual, with the four quadrants being just subdual (annexation; consensual domination), justly subdued (appeasement; consensual submission), unjust subdual (colonization; sexual assault), and unjustly subdued (invasion; victim of sexual assault); first appearance of slavery in Arthurian legend as evil and non-consensual, on the spectrum of domination in kink/bdsm, but it’s debatable if slavery is more like misogynistic violence, being inauthentically queer, or is it a legitimate question of justice and consent, being authentically queer, and concluding that it is inauthentic because slavery in Britain was associated with ethnicity (native Britons were enslaved by Anglo-Saxons).

What meanings have scholars assigned to the authorship of "The Life of St. Goeznovius," and how does this impact our understanding of its historical context? 2. Is the historical relationship between Brittany and Wales adequately explored through the limitations of travel technology during that era? How does this geographical context shape our interpretation of cultural exchanges? 3. What controversies surround the sources of "The Life of St. Goeznovius," and how do these controversies influence interpretations of Arthurian legend? 4. How do authorities reinforce their powers through established norms, as seen in various historical and cultural examples such as Christian sacraments, the Hindu caste system, Confucianism in Imperial China, Nazi propaganda, racial segregation in the United States, and internalized homophobia? 5. What meanings and implications are associated with the term "unjust subdual" in the context of medieval hagiographies, and how does this term reflect the podcast's approach to exploring Arthurian legend through a queer lens? 6.

   4 - A Thousand Fabulous Faces: Queering Culhwch and Olwen (Mab. c. 1050)

   Welcome to 🌈Queering Arthur👑, our fourth episode of the podcast, where you can join us in exploring ✨queer interpretations🧠 of 🫅🏾The Mabinogion's Culhwch and Olwen📜. Context in this episode includes: trade of ideas as technology and the emergence of guilds in Britain after the Norman Conquest, portrayals of Edward I in media, conniving use of democracy to undo democracy itself, and syncretism of druidism within Celtic Christianity. Discussion includes: adaptation of literature for legitimate reasons (entertainment and education) and propagandistic reasons (such as adapting pagan myths to fit Christian frameworks, portray certain rulers in a favorable light, or reinforce societal norms like class hierarchy and patriarchy), the role of the superhero in propaganda over time (such as in Superman, Captain America, Luke Skywalker, and Sailor Moon), and the difference between the inner and outer quest in the hero's journey and other comparative literature techniques like the heroine's journey (such as in The Catcher in The Rye and the Sunstone comics). Analysis in the episode includes: the positive objectification of Olwen the maiden as a boon and the feminine transcendentalism as both exclusionary and freeing, Culhwch's yearning for a boon as a yearning for progress in queer rights over time as ebbs and flows of bittersweet advances and obstacles to advancement, negative objectification of Olwen the maiden as a assortment of body parts to serve the male gaze, and the complexity of whether Olwen's father is being overbearing or if he is grappling with the thought of growing old seeing his daughter move on to a new stage in life.

Now you can become a Knight of The Virtual Round Table and get access to upcoming members only episodes! As always, we're discussing these questions on our discord. Discussion Questions: 1. What meaning do others assign to the term "boon" in the context of the text? Is it seen as objectifying or empowering? How does this perception align with or challenge traditional gender roles? 2. When Culhwch is described as "yearning for his boon" and encountering obstacles, how does this reflect the queer experience of navigating societal barriers? Is there a parallel between Culhwch's quest and the historical struggles of the LGBTQ+ community? 3. In the discussion of the ups and downs of queer rights throughout history, how does the analysis of societal progress intersect with the portrayal of yearning and obstacles in the text? Do the ebbs and flows of LGBTQ+ rights mirror Culhwch's journey for his "boon"? 4. Regarding the description of Olwen's physical attributes in the text, how does the emphasis on her appearance contribute to the objectification of women? In what ways does this reflect broader societal attitudes towards gender and desire? 5. When examining the portrayal of Olwen's physical features, how does the discussion of objectification connect to larger themes of patriarchy and power dynamics in the text? What role does objectification play in reinforcing or challenging traditional gender norms? 6. Considering the varying interpretations of gender and desire presented in the text, how does the portrayal of Olwen's beauty intersect with broader discussions of LGBTQ+ representation and inclusion in literature? Are there alternative readings of Olwen's character that challenge traditional gender roles?

What is the significance of the "annals" within the context of the text, and how does this contribute to the overall queer interpretation? 5. Where is the mention of "annals" situated within the text, and how does its placement affect its interpretation in relation to queer themes? 6.
