"This Norton Critical Edition of the anonymously written fourteenth-century Arthurian
romance Sir Gawain and the Green Knight is derived from a verse translation by Marie
Borroff, first translated in 1967. The poem follows Gawain, a knight of King Arthur's
court, as his honor is tested by the Green Knight. After succeeding in beheading the
Green Knight, who survives the ordeal, Gawain must uphold his end of the bargain and,
after a year's time, meet with the Green Knight again so that the knight may return
the grim favor and behead Gawain. The "Contexts" in this Critical Edition provide
readers with selections of the poem in its original Middle English, as well as other
Arthurian stories that may have influenced the anonymous Gawain-poet. "Criticism"
includes a selection of essays on themes ranging from the poem's descriptive techniques,
to its use of time and gender. A chronology and selected bibliography are also included."
