#FellowshipIfTolkien #MedievalTolkien

Just finished reading Sir Gawain part II.
If this is not ominous, l don't know what is 🥶

I'm not very familiar with this kind of poems firm. Antibody knows what's the deal with such long and detailed descriptions?

Daisey Do you have the section on verse forms? If so, I would definitely read it before finishing the poem. I was much more aware of the alliterative style this time through because of that. Additionally, if you‘re unfamiliar with the story itself, there are prose translations as well. That‘s what I read in high school, so the poetry was new, but I had some familiarity with the story itself, which was probably helpful as well. 2mo
JazzFeathers @Daisey Unfortunately, my edition seems to be very different from yours 😟 But I'll see whether l can find something online 😁 2mo
