Gareth And Lynette

""Gareth And Lynette"" is a narrative poem by Alfred Lord Tennyson that tells the story of a young knight named Gareth who sets out on a quest to prove himself worthy of knighthood. The poem is set in medieval times and is written in a traditional ballad form. Gareth is the youngest son of a nobleman, and he becomes obsessed with the idea of becoming a knight. His mother, however, is opposed to the idea and tries to dissuade him. Undeterred, Gareth sets out on a journey to King Arthur's court, where he hopes to become a knight. Along the way, he meets Lynette, a proud and haughty lady who is on a mission to find her sister, who has been kidnapped by a wicked knight. Gareth agrees to help Lynette, and together they journey to the castle where her sister is being held. Along the way, they encounter a series of challenges and obstacles, but Gareth proves himself to be a brave and skilled knight. In the end, he defeats the wicked knight and rescues Lynette's sister, earning the respect of everyone at King Arthur's court and achieving his dream of becoming a knight. The poem explores themes of courage, perseverance, and the pursuit of one's dreams, and is a classic example of Tennyson's mastery of narrative poetry.THIS 54 PAGE ARTICLE WAS EXTRACTED FROM THE BOOK: Poems of Knightly Adventure, by Alfred Lord Tennyson.
