The History of Sir Gawain and the Green Knight

The History of Sir Gawain and the Green KnightSir Gawain and the Green Knight by Geoffrey Chaucer is one of the finest stories of romance and intrigue ever written in English. It is also one of the oldest stories of romance and intrigue that is still known today.The early origins of Sir Gawain are much disputed. There are a number of versions that vary in their dates, locations, and events. However, the most popular version of the story, which is the one most used today, is that Sir Gawain is a knight who was executed by King Arthur for disobeying him. He came back to England where he became known as a knight who owed money to King Arthur and had killed many people.After his imprisonment, the Lord of the Green Ring named him Greenseer. In addition to being the ruler of the Greens, he held the position of an advisor. He was said to have been the one who managed the Grecian lands with the help of the three Muses, or birds which were symbolized by three arrows, because of the fact that they could tell the future.During the time of the early history of Camelot, it was believed that the Greenseer was the one who sent the message to King Arthur about Arthur's son and heir. The exact way that he was able to do this is not known. But, it was widely believed that he performed some magic using the power of knowledge and wisdom. According to legend, he taught the king Arthur that it was his responsibility to send the next messenger that would be sent to tell the king about his son.Because of the great battle between the Romans and the Britons, the two nations were forced to unite into one. A truce was created and the two parties were allowed to live in peace.However, during this time, Arthur was also becoming more stressed. Because of the troubles in Gaul, the king was also losing his mind. His castle was constantly under attack from the enemy. And the soldiers from all over were always sending new messages that proved that they would never stop attacking the castle.At th is point, it was said that the Greenseer finally died. He was the king's adviser, but he could no longer control the king's heart. His final act was to turn the king's armor black so that the knights would know that there was no hope for them and that the king was dead.The British King then imprisoned the Greenseer and used him as a scapegoat in order to expel the evil from the land. They did this in order to appease the God and stay safe. The British people were told that the Greenseer would return again and rule his kingdom, but he never did.
