- ItemThe Blurred Boundaries Between Nature and Civilization in Sir Gawain and the Green Knight(2017) Petrucci, Ashley; McInerney, Maud BurnettThis thesis considers the 14th century Arthurian text Sir Gawain and the Green Knight through a predominantly ecocritical perspective. There are scenes in this work that involve the encroachment of civilized society upon nature, which include Sir Bertilak’s three hunts and Sir Gawain’s journey through the forest. A reversal of this situation also occurs when the Green Knight enters into King Arthur’s court. This research establishes a connection amongst these scenes due to aspects of the hunt being present in each. It also asserts that the borders between nature and civilization are not completely defined, as the actions of the characters reveal that the qualities of each space permeate the other.
