The medieval period occurred in the 14th century. It was a dark time that swept through Europe, filled with many misfortunes such as plague and famine. However, people emerged from these troubled times and went through a period of renewal and discovery, particularly in matters of literature, which is how medieval literature was created. In medieval literature, storytellers tend to embellish and fantasize to add dramatic effect to attract the reader's attention and allow them to share the meaning of the story or the lessons to be learned from it. One of the most famous medieval literatures to come from this period is Sir Gawain and the Green Knight. This story is an example of the type of storytelling that was practiced at that time. Before Gawain leaves on his journey to the Green Chapel, he is given a shield designed with a pentangle, endless knot on the outside, and inside was an image of the "Queen of Heaven found in her child » (l. 647), the Virgin Mary and her the child Jesus. The image of Mary and Jesus recalls integrity, fidelity and purity, vital characteristics for being not only a knight, but also a disciple of God. He undertakes this journey with “his horse through forest and hill, and on the way there is no one but God to speak to” (l. 695-696).

The knight remains imperturbable and raises his head saying "See, Gawain, that you carry out your promise exactly... head towards the Green Chapel... to be easily reached there on New Year's Day" (l. 448, 451, 453) . This is an example of one of the obstacles that Sir Gawain went through. This moment alludes to certain parables from the Bible. Characters in the Bible are tested and judged by God to prove their holiness and faithfulness to God. They were tested on their faith, sacrifice or love towards God, which can be applied to people's daily lives. The characters in the Bible were tested in many ways and they either succeeded or failed. Another ordeal that occurred during the episode at the castle, Gauvain was tempted by the loot given by the lord. The lord blesses Sir Gawain with a comfortable place to sleep and provides him with sumptuous meals that he catches himself. When the time came for Sir Gawain to leave, the lord was reluctant to allow him to leave. The lord shows great perseverance and convinces Gawain to extend his stay, he even urges the lord that it is his duty to leave and complete the Green Knight's task. However, Gawain is persuaded and trusts the lord's knowledge of the location of the
