Sir Gawain and the Green Knight – Revised Edition de William Vantuono

Sir Gawain and the Green Knight – Revised Edition

Autor William Vantuono
en Limba Engleză Hardback – 14 iul 1999
This comprehensive, critical edition of Sir Gawain and the Green Knight is the fruit of William Vantuono's research on the fourteenth-century romance. In combining fantasy and realism, Sir Gawain and the Green Knight praises court life with an undercurrent of satire against a declining chivalric ideal. The poem calls up from the mythic past the shadows of archetypal figures, yet inspires modern psychoanalytic interpretations, and entertains while teaching a moral-religious lesson.

Recenzii

“Vantuono’s methodology is highly successful, for the pulsating beat and the exuberant spirit of Gawain are recreated in his translation.” —Speculum, volume 68, no. 1, January 1993  (Garland’s edition)
 


“This comprehensive, critical edition of Sir Gawain and the Green Knight is the fruit of William Vantuono's research on the famous fourteenth-century romance that praises court life with an undercurrent of satire against a declining chivalric ideal. The heart of this volume is the Middle English text, with a Modern English verse translation on facing pages and extensive notes at the bottom of the pages. A discussion of the manuscript, the anonymous poet and his other poems, the structure of the poem and its audience, themes, characterization, and purpose serves as a valuable introduction to this classic text. Vantuono's translation follows the original as closely as possible without sacrificing the poem's essential meaning and mood.” —Translation Review
