DESCARGA
A Connecticut Yankee in King Arthur's Court
Inhaltsangabe
A Connecticut engineer named Hank Morgan is thrown into medieval England after suffering a blow to the head and waking up during King Arthur’s reign. Drawing on his knowledge of the modern world, Hank presents himself as a powerful magician and rises to become one of the king’s chief advisers. From that position, he tries to reshape the period by pushing modernization and democratic reforms. His efforts, however, meet resistance from multiple sides, including Merlin, the nobility, and the Church. The novel uses this clash between eras to explore the tensions between progress, political power, and long-established institutions without resolving the conflict in a simple way.
