본문내용

Q1. Why does Sir Gawain participate in the beheading game?
When the Green knight comes in the hall, he lays emphasis on peace. But, the game that he suggests is a cruel beheading game. The beheading game that the Green Knight suggests is judged on the criteria of chivalry. When he suggests this game, the knights of the Round Table keep silence. And King Arthur let other men know that he would participate in the game. At that moment, Sir Gawain participates in this game instead of Arthur. Worthlessness of the beheading game is proved by the other knights’ speech “A marvelous leader of men on land suits him well, / So much better than being belittled and lost, / Beheading by an elvish man due to excessive pride”(678-679). Nevertheless, the reason that Gawain enters the game is to keep faith and show loyalty. “I am aware of my weakness,~ fall on you”(354-357)
