The Endless Knot: Sir Gawain and the Green Knight (The Matter of Arthur, Part 3)
Manage episode 355108412 series 3375142
Today we look at Sir Gawain and the Green Knight, an anonymous narrative poem from the late 14th century Midlands. The Gawain Poet is a gifted technician and craftsman as well as storyteller whose technique interlaces disparate strands into an elegant pattern -- imagine a Celtic knot, the monastic Gospel illuminations, or the intricate metalwork of Saxon artisans, and you have the visual equivalent of Sir Gawain and the Green Knight, the greatest English Arthurian romance!
