ISSN 1697-4239 In the memory of my beloved teacher Prof. Ruth Reichelberg, who taught me what it means to be an academic person and a true Character Sir Thomas Malory's Morte is a mixture of at least two genres, Romance and Chronicle (Pochoda 1971). As McCarthy writes, his style is not of one piece: «’ matière is the matière of romance, but the sens, the ‘’ is perhaps not» (1988: 148).

3. Ll. 1455-1708, Ywain's Trespass and Madness
Ywaine and Gawaine, ? First half of the 14th century, MS early 15th century based on Yvain, ou le chevalier au lion by Chrétien de Troyes, c. 1180 From Ywain’s marriage to his final reconciliation The gracious lady quickly commanded all her men to dress themselves in their best array to receive the king that day; she went outside the town with many barons clad in purple and ermine with belts of fine gold. Wearing rich clothing and riding noble steeds, they hailed the king and all his company with full courtesy. There was much joy, with cloths spread on the street, damsels dancing to trumpets and pipes, and song and minstrelsy ringing throughout the castle and city. The lady created much merriment and was prepared with valuable gifts, and she was surrounded by a large throng of people who cried, “Welcome King Arthure. In all this world you bear the flower, king of all kings. Blessed be he who brings you here.” The lady went to the king to hold his stirrup as he dismounted, but when he saw her, the two met with much mirth and she welcomed him a thousand times over, as well as Sir Gawain. The king admired her loveliness and embraced her in front of many, to their joy. There were so many maidens that each knight had a partner, and the lady went among them and arranged amusements. Thus the king and his knights dwelt in the castle for eight days and nights. Ywain entertained them with all kinds of games, and hunting in the many parks and woods in the fair country that he had gained with his wife.

Distressing Damsels: Sir Gawain and the Green Knight As a Loathly Lady Tale
Distressing Damsels: Sir Gawain and the Green Knight as a Loathly Lady Tale By Lauren Chochinov A Thesis submitted to the Faculty of Graduate Studies of The University of Manitoba In partial fulfillment of the requirements of the degree of MASTER OF ARTS Department of English University of Manitoba Winnipeg, Manitoba Copyright © 2010 by Lauren Chochinov i Abstract At the end of Sir Gawain and the Green Knight, when Bertilak de Hautdesert reveals Morgan le Fay’s involvement in Gawain’s quest, the Pearl Poet introduces a difficult problem for scholars and students of the text. Morgan appears out of nowhere, and it is difficult to understand the poet’s intentions for including her so late in his narrative. The premise for this thesis is that the loathly lady motif helps explain Morgan’s appearance and Gawain’s symbolic importance in the poem. Through a study of the loathly lady motif, I argue it is possible that the Pearl Poet was using certain aspects of the motif to inform his story. Chapter one of this thesis will focus on the origins of the loathly lady motif and the literary origins of Morgan le Fay. In order to understand the connotations of the loathly lady stories, it is important to study both the Irish tales and the later English versions of the motif. My study of Morgan will trace her beginnings as a pagan healer goddess to her later variations in French and Middle English literature. The second chapter will discuss the influential women in Sir Gawain and the Green Knight and their specific importance to the text.

King Arthur was a legendary ruler of Britain whose life and deeds became the basis for a collection of tales known as the Arthurian legends. As the leading figure in British mythology, King Arthur is a national hero and a symbol of Britain's heroic heritage. But his appeal is not limited to Britain. The Arthurian story—with its elements of mystery, magic, love, war, adventure, betrayal, and fate—has touched the popular imagination and has become part of the world's shared mythology. The Celts blended stories of the warrior Arthur with those of much older mythological characters, such as Gwydion (pronounced GWID-yon), a Welsh priest-king. Old Welsh tales and poems place Arthur in traditional Celtic legends, including a hunt for an enchanted wild pig and a search for a magic cauldron, or kettle. In addition, Arthur is surrounded by a band of loyal followers who greatly resemble the disciples of Finn , the legendary Irish hero.

Adaptation and Translation Between French and English Arthurian Romance" (Under the Direction of Edward Donald Kennedy)
Varieties in Translation: Adaptation and Translation between French and English Arthurian Romance Euan Drew Griffiths A dissertation submitted to the faculty of the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the Department of English and Comparative Literature. Chapel Hill 2013 Approved by: Edward Donald Kennedy Madeline Levine E. Jane Burns Joseph Wittig Patrick O'Neill © 2013 Euan Drew Griffiths ALL RIGHTS RESERVED ii Abstract EUAN DREW GRIFFITHS: "Varieties in Translation: Adaptation and Translation between French and English Arthurian Romance" (Under the direction of Edward Donald Kennedy) The dissertation is a study of the fascinating and variable approaches to translation and adaptation during the Middle Ages. I analyze four anonymous Middle English texts and two tales from Sir Thomas Malory’s Le Morte Darthur that are translations and adaptations of Old French Arthurian romances. Through the comparison of the French and English romances, I demonstrate how English translators employed a variety of techniques including what we might define as close translation and loose adaptation. Malory, in particular, epitomizes the medieval translator. The two tales that receive attention in this project illustrate his use of translation and adaptation. Furthermore, the study is breaking new ground in the field of medieval studies since the work draws on translation theory in conjunction with textual analysis. Translation theory has forged a re-evaluation of translation as a literary medium. Using this growing field of research and scholarship, we can enhance our understanding of translation as it existed during the Middle Ages.

The Use of Chivalry As a Binding Force in Public Events Within Four
View metadata, citation and similar papers at core.ac.uk brought to you by CORE provided by ASU Digital Repository The Use of Chivalry as a Binding Force in Public Events Within Four Sir Gawain Romances by Amanda Wilhite A Thesis Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Master of Arts Approved March 2012 by the Graduate Supervisory Committee: Robert Bjork, Chair Robert Sturges Heather Maring ARIZONA STATE UNIVERSITY May 2012 ABSTRACT While tournaments, duels, and challenges were analyzed within literary texts prior to the 1980’s, the most recent trend in scholarship has been to focus on how these proceedings fit into a historical context. Many authors have noted how medieval rulers used tournaments, duels, and challenges as a way to keep their militaristic knights under control; however, there has been relatively little study on the way that these three events function as a means of social control in medieval romances. This paper examines how the public nature of these events and the chivalric nature of their participants combine to subvert the agency of not only the nobles, but also King Arthur himself in four of the Sir Gawain romances, “Ywain and Gawain”, “The Knightly Tale of Gologras and Gawain”, “The Awntyrs off Arthur at the Terne Wathelyne” and Sir Gawain and the Green Knight . i TABLE OF CONTENTS Page INTRODUCTION………………………………………………………1 2 REVIEW OF THE LITERATURE…………………………………..3 3 THE CHIVALRIC IDEAL’S POWER OVER KING ARTHUR IN A PUBLIC SPHERE………………………………………….….…..12 4 THE SUBORDINATION OF THE AGENCY OF NOBLES AS IT RELATES TO ENTERTAINMENT………………………..27 CONCLUSION……………………………………………………......45 WORKS CITED ii INTRODUCTION It is difficult to consider the use of food or games to eliminate political agency without referencing Juvénal’s “Satura X”.
