Table of ContentsAcknowledgements Introduction A Note on the Text Sir Gawain and the Green Knight Appendix A: From Caradoc Appendix B: The Story of the False Guenevere and Bertelay Appendix C: From The Knight with the Sword Appendix D: From Edward of Norwich, Second Duke of York, The Master of Game Glossary Select Bibliography and Works CitedReviewsSir Gawain and the Green Knight is arguably the greatest poem surviving in English from any period, and Paul Battles' edition is the ideal introduction to it. The text has been reconsidered at every level, and the notes and glossary take in the latest scholarship, but the scholarship never threatens to overwhelm the beauty and power of the poem. The new appendices on sources and analogs are especially valuable. --Tom Shippey, Professor Emeritus, Saint Louis University Author InformationPaul Battles is Professor of English at Hanover College.
