green girdle‚ the pentangle on Gawain’s shield‚ and the significance of the Green Knight. I will explain their significance in detail for each one also including the different interpretations. To start off I will discuss what the green girdle means in the story and will investigate upon this.

the Green Knight and Paradise Lost both had a serious impact over the men in their lives. In Sir Gawain and the Green Knight‚ the host’s wife heavily influenced Sir Gawain’s thoughts and strategies through seduction‚ especially when she offered her girdle.

Eve provided Adam with companionship‚ gave Adam confidence‚ and also helped convince him to eat the apple. Both

These are the kinds of questions that led me to my subject of choice. I will endeavor to provide examples‚ using specific transitional fossils‚ to show that

As a result if his decisions‚ he is marked with a scar and wears a girdle to show his dishonesty. It is a visible reminder to Sir Gawain that honor does not always guard the basic human emotions one feels. The sin taints his honor and he is caused to face his life as a witness to his weaknesses. To begin‚ the knight seeks

The Knight also showed forgiveness and understanding when he noticed Gawain wore a braided girdle around his neck to protect him from the blow of the axe; moreover‚ the Knight understood that he “loved [his] own life; the less‚ then‚ to blame.” On top of that he gives Gawain the “gold hemmed” girdle.

Despite all of the bad experiences and temptations he fights along the way‚ after the battle with the Green Knight‚ Sir Gawain is definitely still admirable as the epitome of the Arthurian Knight as he wears a green girdle in remembrance of his mistakes(Sir Gawain).
