My sophomore year I took a class titled Angels and Demons on the Early English Stage class. Reading the plays in this class that seemed to be the inspiration for so many other literary works, sparked my interest. Later, I read Spencer\u2019s first book of The Faerie Queene, I have become attached to medieval and early modern works like this. I went to see the film the Green Knight based on the poem Sir Gawain and the Green Knight, and I became inspired to approach the structure and context of these epic poems through my thesis. In particular, I liked delving into the quests that popped up along the way and were seemingly irrelevant to the main journey. They always yielded some insight into some aspect of medieval life and I want to learn more about the significance of the poem in medieval England through the stores its people wove together. <\/p>\n

Upon further research and consultation with professors in the field, I have decided to focus on the genre of Medieval Romance in particular as they represent my interest in poetic and lyric structure while also satisfying my need to study quest narratives and animal encounters\/metamophosis. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
