Hardcover. Etat : Near Fine. Etat de la jaquette : Near Fine. 2nd Edition. 208 pages with photograph, bibliography and index. Royal octavo (9 1/2" x 6 1.2") bound in original publisher's brown cloth with gilt lettering to spine in original pictorial jacket. Second printing. Sir Gawain, the nephew of King Arthur, was once the most important knight at Arthur's court, a shining example of all that was best in chivalry. He even outranked the famous Lancelot. Yet as the popularity of the Arthurian romances grew, the character of Gawain became increasingly diminished in popular literature. John Matthews explores the phenomenon that influenced the recasting of Gawain from hero to womanizing villain, providing a scholarly context through which Gawain's role as the representative of the Goddess upon Earth--the real Green Knight of Camelot and Sovereignty's Champion--may be restored. In addition, the author presents a unique view of the mythology of Britain and its connections with the historical changes that took place over many hundreds of years in the religious and mystical traditions of the country.
