ESCLADOS. Arthurian.
In Yvain, Esclados le Ros, the red knight. The name is equal
to Ascalon, and probably means "from Ascalon," a place in
the east. (Deutsche Classiker des Mittelalters, Pfeiffer, v.6, Hartmann
von Aue, 1888). The words scallion
and shallot were both derived from the place-name. (Principles
of English Etymology, Skeat, 1891).
Echalote, sf. (etym. L.
Ascalonia, from the proper name Ascalon, shalot. (A
Compendious Dictionary of the French Language, Masson, 1874)
So closely
does The Slothful Gillie approximate to the common theme of Yvain
and The Lady of the Fountain, that we may venture to explain
several features of the Anglo-Norman romance by means of the Celtic
folk-tale. To begin with, the Knight of the Fountain in The
Slothful Gillie wears a scarlet mantle and a golden crown, posing as
the king of Tir-fa-tonn. We may take it, then, that Esclados le
Ros ("the Red") in Yvain and the black knight in The
Lady of the Fountain were usurping the position of the Otherworld
king. Again, the hospitable host in The Slothful Gillie,
who gives his name as the Knight of Valour, explains that he is the
rightful king. Probably, therefore, the hospitable host in Yvain
and The Lady of the Fountain was likewise the real king. (Folklore,
Nutt, v.18, 1907)
