Abstract: '...portrays nine of the women in Arthurian legend...the Ladies of the Lake in whom the ancient Celtic Goddess is fragmented and reflected. Just as Arthur's Knights assemble about the Round Table to discover their quest, so the Arthurian Ladies gather about the deep waters of the Lake to draw upon their innate gifts. And just as the mysterious element of water permeates all life, so the influence of the Ladies of the Lake permeates the whole Arthurian legend. They are the empowerers, guardians and transformers whose wisdom is still accessible today.
