Literary Analysis of Sir Gawain and the Green Knight

– Use translation by Jessie L. Weston
– Theme: Darkness
– A complete 8-page full interpretative literary analysis & research that proposes that the narrative provides a specific vision of the world (determined by your research and analysis of the text and literary essays).
– Viable and debatable claim statement suitable to a literary essay and the assigned text. You must prove your claim statement through original analysis of specific passages from the poem to make your point. Don’t write about something obvious from the poem – mere summary is not helpful, the original text says it better.
> Please use my original claim statement: Amidst adventure and turbulent trials, the Pearl Poet launches Sir Gawain on a dark quest to reinforce universal and timeless Christian principles in a 14th century England, immersed with pagan values [, to demonstrate restitution in society.] <– can be omitted if necessary.
– The analysis begins with a focused introduction that introduces readers to the claim statement and ends with a reflective conclusion that mirrors the introduction.
– The analysis must represent your own interpretation backed by passages from the poem. Do not assume your audience has read the poem, at the same time don’t summarize the text, only provide the reader plot details when necessary. Followed by a Works Cited page in MLA format

– Each paragraph builds upon the previous and directly answers the claim statement
– The essay seeks to prove the claim with reasoned proofs based on the text and research.
