"A Connecticut Yankee in King Arthur's Court" follows Hank Morgan, a 19th-century American from Connecticut who is knocked unconscious and awakens in medieval England during King Arthur's reign. Utilizing his knowledge of modern technology and American values, Hank becomes an influential figure at court, seeking to bring progress and democracy to the chivalric society. However, he faces challenges from the entrenched traditions of the time, including the power of the monarchy and the influence of magic. The story explores themes of social justice, the absurdities of both the past and present, and the clash between innovation and tradition. [Generated by language model - please report any problems].
