초록
This study aims to analyze the relation between the male-centered bond in the Arthurian kingdom and the woman’s magic power represented in Malory’s Morte d’Arthur. Morgan le Fay is portrayed as the most vicious witch in the Arthurian society. Her active and subversive magic power becomes a threat to the chivalry which is built on the male-centered bond. King Arthur and his knights try to oppress and control her power continuously blaming her and even calling her a satan. Nonetheless, unlike other sorceresses, Morgan is never oppressed or controled by the male-dominated society in the Arthurian kingdom. This study attempts to argue that Morgan is never entirely controlled by the male-dominated society because she does not easily fit into the gender role demanded in the patriarchal society but appropriates it to gratify her own desire.
Abstract
This study aims to analyze the relation between the male-centered bond in the Arthurian kingdom and the woman’s magic power represented in Malory’s Morte d’Arthur. Morgan le Fay is portrayed as the most vicious witch in the Arthurian society. Her active and subversive magic power becomes a threat to the chivalry which is built on the male-centered bond. King Arthur and his knights try to oppress and control her power continuously blaming her and even calling her a satan. Nonetheless, unlike other sorceresses, Morgan is never oppressed or controled by the male-dominated society in the Arthurian kingdom. This study attempts to argue that Morgan is never entirely controlled by the male-dominated society because she does not easily fit into the gender role demanded in the patriarchal society but appropriates it to gratify her own desire.
