the purpose of this essay is to examine the representation of men in the above medieval texts and how the identity and gender roles of the male characters Eddard Stark and Tyrion Lannister in A Song of Ice and Fire, and the knights of Thomas Malory’s Le Morte Darthur, are either perpetuated or subverted, an area of research not previously undertaken in sufficient detail.

Sir Orfeo is a Medieval Romance - in this seminar, we discussed the plot, key themes, similar texts that were also medieval and shared ideas about how we could interpret the otherworld or the 'fairy' world with suggested reading to do with Wade, Cooper and Byrne. We also looked at the parallels that exist between this medieval text and the classic texts such as Ovid and Virgil.
