Notes
Sir Gawain and the Green Knight is a scholarly edition of the Middle English romance. Using a number of sources of information, including Tolkien's later notes on the subject, Norman Davis revised Tolkien and Gordon's earlier work - largely rewriting the Introduction, Notes and appendices on Metre and Language in the process.
