A. The Most Important Character

B. In the Middle Ages

C. The Legendary King

D. Hero with a Smile on His Lips

1) There are hundreds of books and films about King Arthur and the Knights of the Round Table. But is Arthur a real historical figure? Some historians believe that he is. Stories about him first appeared in the early Middle Ages and grew through the centuries. By the nineteenth century the legend was not only the tale of a warrior fighting the invading Saxons but a long cycle of stories full of fantasy and romance.

What is it that attracts readers and viewers in Arthur's legends? First of all, Arthur is a hero. He's strong, noble and generous. Most of the time, he wins his battles. On the other hand, he is human, a character with a destiny. We follow his progress from the young boy who pulls the sword from the stone to the wise king responsible for his people and the country.

Like it always happens in old heroic legends, the central hero is a character whose fate is clear to him. When young Arthur draws the sword from the stone, he does it because there's nobody else who can do it. So he has no choice, no other way. And we want to go with him and find out how he will do what he must.

2) We do not know if there was a real Robin Hood. A lot of historians have tried to find him or his prototype but failed.

The legends about a character whose name was Robin Hood began to appear in England as early as in the thirteenth century. Since that time Robin has become one of the most popular literary characters in the world. The reason why he is popular is quite clear: like King Arthur, Robin is a hero. He fights on the side of the poor and powerless against the strong and the wicked. The reader is always on Robin's side because they know that he is right.

Robin Hood's life is that of adventure. He takes risks to do what he thinks is right and spends time with his friends in the forest. His friends, his Merry Men, have a lot of respect for their leader. He is brave, a great fighter and an excellent archer. He also has a good sense of humour and enjoys tricking his enemies. He often makes them look stupid in front of his friends and other common people. He loves a good laugh.

Robin Hood stands first in the line of a great number of heroes and superheroes from books and films, such as Zorro, Batman, Spiderman and many, many others.

1) C. The Legendary King - Легендарный король

There are hundreds of thousands of books and films about King Arthur and the Knights of the Round Table. But is Arthur a real historical figure? Some historians believe that he is. Stories about him first appeared in the early Middle Ages and grew through the centuries. By the nineteenth century the legend was not only the tale of a warrior fighting the invading Saxons but a long cycle of stories full of fantasy and romance.
О короле Артуре и рыцарях Круглого стола есть сотни книг и фильмов. Но является ли Артур реальной исторической личностью? Некоторые историки полагают, что да. Истории о нем впервые появились в раннем средневековье и разрастались на протяжении веков. К девятнадцатому веку легенда представляла собой не только рассказ о воине, сражающемся с вторгшимися саксами, но и длинный цикл историй, полных фантазии и романтики.

What is it that attracts readers and viewers in Arthur’s legends? First of all, Arthur is a hero. He’s strong, noble and generous. Most of the time, he wins his battles. On the other hand, he is human, a character with a destiny. We follow his progress from the young boy who pulls the sword from the stone to the wise king responsible for his people and the country.
Что же привлекает читателей и зрителей в легендах об Артуре? Прежде всего, Артур – герой. Он сильный, благородный и щедрый. Большую часть времени он выигрывает свои сражения. С другой стороны, он человек, персонаж со своей судьбой. Мы следим за его развитием от мальчика, который вытаскивает меч из камня, до мудрого короля, ответственного за свой народ и страну.

Like it always happens in old heroic legends, the central hero is a character whose fate is clear to him. When young Arthur draws the sword from the stone, he does it because there’s nobody else who can do it. So he has no choice, no other way. And we want to go with him and find out how he will do what he must.
Как это всегда бывает в старинных героических легендах, центральным героем является персонаж, судьба которого ему ясна. Когда юный Артур вытаскивает меч из камня, он делает это потому, что больше никто не может это сделать. Поэтому у него нет выбора, нет другого пути. И мы хотим пойти с ним и узнать, как он будет делать то, что должен.

2) D. Hero with a Smile on His Lips - Герой с улыбкой на губах

We do not know if there was a real Robin Hood. A lot of historians have tried to find him or his prototype but failed.
Мы не знаем, существовал ли настоящий Робин Гуд. Многие историки пытались найти его или его прототип, но безуспешно.

The legends about a character whose name was Robin Hood began to appear in England as early as in the thirteenth century. Since that time Robin has become one of the most popular literary characters in the world. The reason why he is popular is quite clear: like King Arthur, Robin is a hero. He fights on the side of the poor and powerless against the strong and the wicked. The reader is always on Robin’s side because they know that he is right.
Легенды о персонаже по имени Робин Гуд начали появляться в Англии еще в тринадцатом веке. С этого времени Робин стал одним из самых популярных литературных персонажей в мире. Причина его популярности вполне ясна: как и король Артур, Робин — герой. Он сражается на стороне бедных и бессильных против сильных и злых. Читатель всегда на стороне Робина, потому что знают, что он прав.

Robin Hood’s life is that of adventure. He takes risks to do what he thinks is right and spends time with his friends in the forest. His friends, his Merry Men, have a lot of respect for their leader. He is brave, a great fighter and an excellent archer. He also has a good sense of humour and enjoys tricking his enemies. He often makes them look stupid in his friends’ and other common people. He loves a good laugh.
Жизнь Робин Гуда полна приключений. Он рискует, делая то, что считает правильным, и проводит время со своими друзьями в лесу. Его друзья, его Весельчаки, очень уважают своего лидера. Он храбрый, отличный боец и отличный лучник. У него также хорошее чувство юмора, и ему нравится обманывать своих врагов. Он часто выставляет их глупыми перед своими друзьями и другими простыми людьми. Он любит посмеяться.

Robin Hood stands first in the line of a great number of heroes and superheroes from books and films, such as Zorro, Batman, Spiderman and many, many others.
Робин Гуд стоит первым в ряду множества героев и супергероев из книг и фильмов, таких как Зорро, Бэтмен, Человек-Паук и многих-многих других.
