InfoGrenades / It may seem like an Arthurian tale for children, but it's actually an allegory for the history of The Knights Templar and several occult sects.

Hoo boy, Parzival (by Von Eschenbach) is NOT just a tale about The Templars, King Arthur, Knights of the Round Table, and a boy raised in the forest by his mom

Starting on page 1, it’s drippin with esotericism and allegory, but also “hidden history” of some real events.

It is (as of the time of writing) still free on the Internet Archive here.

see also: The Band Rush and the song about the trees.

See how “Parzival” influenced some characters from history you may not expect.
