In this classic example of the chivalric tradition, a stranger in green armor issues a challenge to the knights of the Round Table and Sir Gawain volunteers to do battle for his uncle, King Arthur. Includes the original poem and a prose translation.
When a gigantic stranger clad in green armor bursts in on the Round Table to issue a challenge, gallant Sir Gawain volunteers to do battle for his uncle, King Arthur. This edition presents the legendary tale in two forms: as a poem and in a prose translation. This work from the late fourteenth century or earlier blends paganistic elements with Christian ethics to celebrate the virtue of forgiveness, forming a classic example of the chivalric tradition.
