Rate this book
Sir Gawain and the Green Knight (Classics) is a timeless 14th-century Middle English poem that follows the legendary knight Sir Gawain, a member of King Arthur's Round Table, as he accepts a mysterious challenge from the enigmatic Green Knight. The Green Knight dares any knight to strike him with an axe, with the condition that he may return the blow in a year and a day. Gawain takes up the challenge, only to face a series of trials testing his bravery, honor, and moral character. The poem weaves together themes of chivalric duty, temptation, and the pursuit of personal honor, exploring the tension between personal desire and ethical responsibility. This edition presents the classic narrative with clarity and scholarly insight, making it an essential work for anyone interested in medieval literature and Arthurian legend.
