The 2 Sides of Gawain: Hero vs. Antihero | Fate & Fabled

[@chavamara]

My favourite Gawain story is the one with the Hideous Bride, where Arthur is tasked to answer the question, "What do women want most?" or die. Arthur gets the answer from an ugly hag he meets, that women "want to have their own way," but in exchange, he has to marry her to one of his knights. Gawain is the only one who volunteers to marry her, and in so doing breaks part of the curse she's under so she can be beautiful for either the day or the night. When she asks him when she should be beautiful, Gawain shows he's learned the moral of the story and tells her to pick for herself, fully breaking her curse.

[@dragonicus2614]

Dude that's a good story

[@GameTimeWhy]

Did he then immediately cheat on her?

[@skyllalafey]

Isn't that The Wife of Bath story from Canterbury Tales? I'd not encountered it as being related to Gawain before.

[@ANewShadeOfBlue]

@@skyllalafey That’s what I was thinking?

[@chipper2757]

@@skyllalafey it’s a pretty common motif in medieval literature known as the ‘loathly lady’. The version with Gawain is called ‘The Wedding of Sir Gawain and Dame Ragnelle’

[@ANewShadeOfBlue]

The version of The Green Knight I read basically concluded with the moral of “It’s okay to not be perfect.” The knight knew he lied to keep the girdle, but didn’t begrudge him for not wanting to die. He got a B on his honor exam and B still passes. Of course, Gawain still felt shame about it, so wore the girdle to remind himself to keep the faith, essentially. I never heard it read as a deconstruction before. Goes to show that there are many ways to interpret a story.

[@nala7829]

That's exactly the intended message! It's a very Medieval Catholic character study/morality tale. I love it because Gawain... does not get the message. Everyone else respects him and thinks it shows that even the ideal knight will sometimes fail, so repent, get up, try again; but he's out here genuinely ashamed for breaking a impossible code - because that's what someone who acts like Gawain does would do.

[@leocelente]

This is the first time I heard the tale of the Green Knight, but I read the first beheading as hubris, Gawain thought he could cheat the game by killing and was punished by either having to give up on his life or his honor, the latter being heavily intertwined with his status and source of the hubris.

[@M4TCH3SM4L0N3]

That seems like a reasonable guess, especially since Gawain asks the Green Knight before striking him what his name is and where his lands are, to which the Green Knight responds that he will answer after Gawain gives his stroke. He then adds teasingly, that if he doesn't give answer (say, if he CAN'T answer) after Gawain's strike, then Gawain can happily stay home the next year without being called coward. I think that this is clearly meant as a suggestion from the Green Knight that killing him might provide a way out.

[@pv2639]

No it is about maybe the real heads we behead are the magic and kisses along the way. Also, never look a green and gold girdle gift girl in the mouth when making out with said gift girl.

[@Venture_gal84]

Shout out to the BBC SciFi Merlin for casting Eoin Macken in the role, I don’t recall them tackling the Green Knight, but for all the slack the series got, Gwaine was handled and cast brilliantly. Time for a rewatch.

[@chrisoneill3999]

Only in the original poem, Gawain doesn't accept the challenge. Arthur accepts the challenge, but when Gawain realizes that the Green Knight probably has some cards up his sleeve, and that if anything happen to Arthur, Camelot is finished, Gawain begs Arthur to pass the challenge over. It is actually worth learning Middle English just to read this one poem (there are other poems almost as good, two of them by the same poet). I have spent a large chunk of my life discussing with classes why Arthur accepts the challenge, and that has been time extremely well spent.

[@gilbertoflores7397]

It's actually about honor, Gawain is the most noble and the best example of chivalry from the knights. However, it's meant to expose how even the most noble knights isn't actually "bout it, bout it" when his life is on the line, kind of mocking the idea of chivalry when actually put to the test. A lot of older writings are actually criticism of the establishment and ruling bodies.

[@billtisch3698]

Another famous Gawain legend is that of Lady Guinevere's chastity belt. King Arthur was planning for a great crusade to the Holy Land. One of his tasks was to ensure the safety of his Queen Guinevere's honor while he was away. So he had a chastity belt made for her and locked her securely in it as he prepared to depart. But then he realized he would need to entrust the key to one of his knights, since it was a possibility that he would never return. So, after careful consideration, he decided that he must leave key with Sir Gawain, his most chaste and moral knight. Having done this, he set off on his journey. Just a few minutes later, however, Sir Gawain came galloping from the castle in pursuit, shouting to Arthur, "Your Majesty, Your Majesty! You gave me the wrong key!"

[@ethenallen1388]

My understanding is that, after his second encounter with the Green Knight, Gawain choose to wear the girdle for the rest of his life as penance, and the rest of the Round Table knights followed his example in a gesture of solidarity. A sort of "Your shame is our shame," thing.

[@SaiyanHeretic]

The Green Knight (2021) is a trippy and really engrossing adaptation of this tale that was critically acclaimed but went criminally unseen. I highly recommend it, one of the best movies I saw that year!

[@aegresen]

Hear hear! That was such a fun experience!

[@falgalhutkinsmarzcal3962]

I hate that interpretation. The hubris of the director, speaking through Lady Bertilak, saying that he "improves" the story irks me badly. And the whole idea that Gawain should marry the prostitute or else the kingdom will fall due to strife is idiotic. Being the heir apparent he would be expected to marry a noblewoman, but in the movie it is implied that he creates strife by NOT marrying the prostitute. It is stupid.

[@Ironattheend]

​@@falgalhutkinsmarzcal3962 I saw this movie like a semester after we went over the original story in my college lit class. I remember sitting in the theater becoming more and more confused and frustrated. I knew the story inside and out, along with all the symbolism and meaning, and the movie just shredded all my ideas. Maybe I missed important good stuff because of my expectations, but I definitely won't be watching it again to find out.

[@aliadrift]

I hate that movie because it fundamentally changes the story and his character. He is brave and is there to prove that Arthur's knights are noble men, but in that movie, he's a coward through and through. All the side quests are weird but easy to accept as something to fill the run time. But at the end, the only reason he finally fulfills his end of the deal and meets the Green Knight is because he saw the vision of how he'd die if he turned around and left. He chose the simpler, easier death. He didn't change into an honorable man. He was still a coward who chose the easy way out and got to go home. I hated the movie, but it was absolutely gorgeous. The Green Knight's design was beautiful and I loved it, but that's it. They decided to turn a story about a decent knight into a story about a weak man who wasn't even a knight yet trying to become one by passing all these tests that represent the 5 pillars of knighthood or whatever.

[@la_beatrice]

Yes, to me it was the best movie I saw that year.

[@xenspace5764]

Gawain and Cuchulainn are to some extent the same character, or share a similar origin and evolved on separate paths (Gawain being Brythonic/Welsh, CuChulainn Irsh), as were the Morrigan and Queen Morgana (a name that could either mean 'Great Queen (Mor Regana) or Born of the Sea (Mori-gena),). I love the story of Gawain and the Green Knight, but have a somewhat different interpretation to others expressed here. Gawain did not take the challenge of the beheading game out of pride or hubris, but to save the life of King Arthur who was going to accept the challenge. Gawain therefore knew the challenge was completely sus and likely to be a trick, so would have refused had he the choice, so his acceptance was reluctant, but necessary to save his lord, whom he had sworn to protect. The end of the tale is also slightly glossed over; according to my memory, Lord Bertilak doesn't take a single swing, but three. The fist two times he doesn't make contact, but pulls the blow, giving some excuse for doing so. It is on the third swing that he nicks Gawain's neck. This reflects the three days prior; on the first two days, Gawain gave what he received (the kisses) and so honoured the bargain made. On the final day he broke the deal by keeping the girdle, and therefore receives the cut. He didn't get his head cut off because Gawain had shown up in the first place - one imagines that if he had just stayed at home, the Green Knight would have turned up and been somewhat less merciful with his axe.

[@GameTimeWhy]

That's actually a really interesting take.

[@sparklinggrimm532]

This is largely the way I heard it too. Also, he's not faulted for being afraid, because, as the Green Knight points out, that's human, but for lying and initially blame shifting. He's also told to keep the green belt to remind him to be honest in the future.

[@xenspace5764]

That's right; at the end of the story the other knights take up the wearing of the belt as a sign of Gawain's success, but he saw it as a reminder of his failure.@@sparklinggrimm532

[@chrisoneill3999]

Good to find someone else who agrees that Gawain doesn't volunteer for the challenge, he accepts it because that's the only way Arthur can save face. Two other aspects of the poem that have always intrigued me: we are told Arthur is 'child3ered', which might mean 'young at heart' but could just as easily mean 'childish'; and the poem prominently features three different weapons: the sword which was the Norman's implement of choice, the two-hand ax which is how Saxon infantry traditionally fought, and the bow (in the hunting sections) which was the weapon of choice for the Celts and other irregular soldiers.

[@Dorian_sapiens]

Is there an etymological connection between the names Gawain and Cuchulainn?

[@sameechaos1]

Loved Gawain portrayed in the Merlin tv series.

[@teasorceryr3633]

How I love you guys and this series! Dr Emily your fashion sense is killer! So is Moiya’s her dresses are FAB

[@Beryllahawk]

Arthurian legends are always so entangled and confusing, sometimes in a good way and sometimes not so much. Recalling that a girdle could symbolize a woman's "virtue" really makes the interaction with the Lady more uncomfortable for me at least. It's also interesting if you take it as "foreshadowing" what happens later with Lancelot, especially when looking at the story through a lens of "questioning the hypocrisy."

Then there is the story of Dame Rag-Nell (famously told by the Wife of Bath in Chaucer's Canterbury Tales). Queen Guinevere sends Gawain on a quest to find "what all women want the most." Only an old washerwoman crone, Rag-Nell, gives him the answer "for their will to be done," in exchange for his hand in marriage. After they wed and when night falls, the crone becomes a beautiful but evil girl... Turns out that due to a spell (maybe by Morgan le Fey?) she was ugly on the outside but pretty on the inside (kind) by day, but a beautiful evil girl by night... until she got married. Then her bridegroom should decide how she should be... Gawain says that, since all women want their will to be done, SHE should decide HERSELF... And she becomes young and pretty but also kind-hearted.

[@richewilson6394]

Love the skits in the episodes here, also would love to learn more about Arthur's knights there's only like three of them that I can think of offhand. Would be nice to know more about the other ones that didn't get a lot of attention.

[@julietfischer5056]

The _Mabinogion_ has some Arthurian tales. _The History of the Kings of Britain_ by Geoffrey of Monmouth has one of the earliest treatments of King Arthur. Chretien de Troyes wrote a number of romances. _Parzifal_ by Wolfram von Eschenbach. Sir Thomas Malory's _Le Morte d'Arthur._ Robert de Boron's poem about Merlin, and _The Prose Merlin._ And many more. Wikipedia and The Camelot Project Site are good places to start. Project Gutenberg has public-domain translations of some works.

[@brandondavidson4085]

The cool thing about Gawain, especially in "The Once and Future King", Gawain was a ride and die friend to Arthur, even more so than his adopted brother/cousin Sir Kay. Gawain did not always agree with Arthur and often let his hot headedness get "ahead" of him, but would always acquiesce to Arthur's wishes.

[@ReynaSingh]

The knight is a pervasive archetype that we see across cultures.It's a fascinating symbol of courage and self-scarifice

[@rabidspatula1013]

Agreed, its the ultimate distillation of the idealized warrior as a noble protector. I am sure Lancelot, Hector, and Arjuna would have a lot to talk about if there was ever a crossover.

[@chavamara]

I remember hearing that the Green Man was actually a fabrication made up by a Victorian scholar who wanted to explain why there were leafy faces on so many Medieval buildings, and that there's no previous mention of the Green Man before that. Could you check up on that?

[@Hallows4]

From what I understand, even though Green Man images appear all over the place, there are no surviving stories explicitly connected with those images. Although the symbolism is fairly explicit - face poking out amidst leaves obviously has some connection to nature - I wouldn’t be surprised if the term “Green Man” was a much more recent creation, and only retroactively applied to the images. That being said, there are folkloric figures that bear conceptual similarities; Pan, Cernunnos, the Leshy and others all embody nature in some way and are often associated with green.

[@helenl3193]

I could be wrong but I also remember hearing that the English folklore of the Green Man was a recent fabrication, but there are other cultures that have similar figures. It could make for a good episode

[@EayuProuxm]

These skits are something else.

[@jaymayhoi]

The Green knight movie was great!

[@chiefecho1]

Another thing I know of Sir Gawain, although inconsistent, is that he's sometimes referred to as The Knight of the Sun. There are a few sources which indicate a gift he was given which grants him great power around noon, or for the surrounding hours of noon. Alternatively, his prowess in combat is sometimes linked to the rising and falling of the sun, while noon is his peak. Arthur oftentimes planned battles around this cycle due to Gawain's 'invincibility' as his peak. Unfortunately, though, it is few and far between that proper sources bring this point up. The Vulgate Cycle is one source that implies this aspect about Gawain.

[@alastorcorvus]

Great pick and also very thematic, The Morrígu are also representative of nature, fertility/feminity, fierceness and war (in the context of defending the sovereignity of land), she's my favourite deity, specialy her Badb aspect, which is represented by the raven/crow.

[@MatthewOfDunedin]

Even just on a keeping promised front, he couldn't give the girdle as he had promised not to before knowing what he was promising (and that it was contradicting a preexisting promise). The boy was too quick to give his word, and not great at stopping to think.

[@RanadielMarius]

"Lord and Lady Bertilak have a really messed up relationship." I mean they're fey (probably). Gawain should consider himself lucky that he got out of their games with nothing more than a few kisses and a nick. He could have ended up with a donkey head or ended up dealing with the Unseelie instead, which would have been far worse for him. And at least he didn't end up in the middle of a spat between Zeus and Hera.

[@germanomagnone]

Sir Gawain, he really risked "losing face" in an experience that I would say was "not very chivalrous" (perhaps the headless horseman had participated in this "game") 2:36 = I would define her as ready to be "cool until the death"; 2:56 = I would say that she had to play "heads or tails" 6:47 the perfect color matching belt for Leprechauns (yellow=gold green=ireland/lawns)
