Exploring history, myth and meaning in the story of Saint George. A story of huge cultural significance, George of Lydda was the young 4th century Christian martyr who apparently fought against a dragon and gave his life in refusing to renounce his Christian faith. We may think the dragon story is now a cliché, but here I offer just my opinions on what I make of it, touching on Joseph Campbell's abstractions of the heroic type and Jonathan Pageau's ideas/observations on attention.
