Sir Gawain and the Green Knight appears, at first glance, to be a simple medieval romance: an enjoyable story about knights, quests and fair ladies. Read more carefully, however, it shows itself to be so much more. Level after level of allegory appears, exploring themes of chivalry, nature, joy, obedience, and honor. This poem is a joy to read aloud, and is sure to delight everyone. Enjoy!
