This delightful volume contains three poems originally written in Middle English and translated to modern English by J. R. R. Tolkien. Sir Gawain and Pearl were written by the same unknown author from the West Midlands using an ancient measure and an alliterative style. In his lively translation of these classics, Tolkien has maintained the style and feel of the poems while making them accessible to the modern reader. Sir Orfeo is another poem from an even earlier time and was a favourite of Tolkien's.","brand":"Country House Library","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":55732111212923,"sku":"10566279","price":19.59,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/2458\/8207\/files\/orig_490076_jpg.jpg?v=1757423958","url":"https:\/\/countryhouselibrary.co.uk\/products\/tolkiens-sir-gawain-the-green-knight-pearl-and-sir-orfeo-unwin-paperbacks-1981","provider":"Country House Library ","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
