Sinopsis

Gawain and the Green Knight is the celebrated poem from the time of Chaucer, written in the dialect then currentáin the north of England. ChaucerâÇÖs language outlasted this dialect. The poem draws on rich Arthurian and folk traditions involving the Green Man and knightly virtue. It has been frequently translated but JohnáWatson has chosen to devise a version running parallel to the original while avoiding direct translation. Here Gawain struggles afresh with the Green KnightâÇÖs gruesome challenge and overcomes mysterious temptations in order to preserve the precept of Virtue as required at the Round Table.
