哈利·波特 问题

Who is Merlin?

I'm just curious if this was some historical figure 或者 just a British term when Ron says something like MERLINS PANTS! And THE ORDER OF MERLIN FIRST CLASS. I hear a lot and I'm just wondering if anyone knows what it's referring to.

MERLIN'S PANTS! Merlin is a historical wizard.

because its common fantastic lore. Merlin was a powerful wizard who taught Arthur many important lessons about courage and 爱情 and intelligence, preparing him for the 日 he would get Excalibur, a sword stuck in a stone, and become the King of Camelot(england according to disney). He then assisted Arthur in his many wars, who had victory assured due to the sword Excalibur and the advise of the wise wizard. Later Merlin confessed all his tricks to Morgana, a wood witch to whom he fell in 爱情 with, and she used this knowledge to trap merlin inside an oak. then King Arthurs kingdom fell.

Merlin (768-1124) is commonly regarded as the founder of the modern Wizarding World. He is known throughout the globe among muggles and wizards alike for his sorcery, and is arguably the world's greatest and most famous wizard. He is also arguably the world's greatest and most famous muggle-born.
Merlin's Beard!", "Merlin's Pants!", also "Merlin's baggy Y fronts!" are in reference to him.

okay, IF wikipedia really says this its insulting. Merlin was not a muggle born, for he is a character from another book.

your 描述 was OK. beats the one from wikipedia over there. I still can't believe people wouldn't know who Merlin is. If 你 dont read 图书 there are still plenty of movies, even 迪士尼 made a very 流行的 movie.
