Back with a reading from my Medieval Literature class, this time we read the 800 year old British classic Sir Gawain and the Green Knight. I see now why many people did not like the newest “The Green Knight” film. People who have studied this poem or those forced to read it for a class didn’t like how different the movie was. But call me crazy, I like the movie more. The basic principles of the poem exist in the movie they’re just rearranged and placed in new spots. They also add a lot more for Gawain to do. But either way, this poem is still a masterpiece with such a cool stanza format and rhyme scheme. It is written very well and very easy to understand despite being well over 800 years old and translated from a form of English we no longer use. I don’t know much of the lore for King Arthur so thankfully this is pretty light on all of that until the end, like literally the last 3 pages or so. But the messages on following the principles you choose or living honorably are timeless and can still be used today. Sir Gawain and the Green Knight is of course getting a 10/10. -Tyler.
