The Old English poems, “The Wanderer” and “The Dream of the Rood” provide insight into some of the values held by people living in between the 6th and 12th centuries in England. What are some of those values? What lines in the poems (quote!) suggest these values? How are these values similar or different from our own values?
Think back on stories you might have heard or read about knights and ladies. How does Marie de France’s “The Lay of Sir Launfal” fit with those other stories? Are the relationships between Launfal and King Arthur, Launfal and his lady, King Arthur and the queen, and Launfal and the queen what you expected? Why or why not?
“The Dream of the Rood” and “The Second Shepherd’s Play” both deal with stories from the life of Jesus – his death and his birth. How do these telling differ from traditional stories you have read or heard about the crucifixion and nativity?
