Sir Gawain and the Green Knight

The legendary King Arthur and his most chivalrous knight, Sir Gawain, star in this classic Middle English romantic poem relating a haunting tale. The work combines Christian themes with earlier literary traditions, tests of courage and the ability to resist temptation.

Prof. Wayne emulates the original poet's style, admired for its use of strong physical and visual imagery, alliteration and internal rhymes, and the metrical form called the 'bob and wheel.'
