More about the book
The paper analyzes how the author of Sir Gawain and the Green Knight navigates and occasionally subverts the conventions of the Arthurian romance genre. It begins with a structuralist definition of the genre and identifies common motifs. Following this groundwork, the discussion focuses on the poem's generic structure and highlights moments where the poet ironically challenges the reader's expectations, revealing a deeper commentary on the genre itself.
