In this excerpt from Sir Gawain and the Green Knight, what does the description of the attire of the strange man say of his social status?

Answers

Answer 1
Answer:

The attire of Bertilak, the mysterious Green Knight who challenges the knights of the Round Table, is described in the medieval text in detail in lines 161-172, where we can read that  "Bothe the bosses on his belt and other bright gems / That were richly ranged on his raiment noble". The word noble indicates indeed his social status; it grants him his high position in the court. Additionally, the fact that precious stones and metals are part of his attire also reflects the lavishness of the royalty and the court.

Dear friends.

I believe that we are all young, educated, civilized and in full control of our mental faculties. In addition, I know that we are all concerned with maintaining the environment around us and the reputation of our school, which is one of our great responsibilities. However, I believe that we should never fail to mention some rules and guidelines that should be carried out by people like us during our picnics, during school trips.

Override these rules, I would like to highlight the most important ones, which I urge you to remember and follow by everyone. First of all, we must throw all the garbage produced by us in the appropriate places for this and not leave any kind of residue in the places we use to feed ourselves, this will allow a clean and pleasant environment. We must also avoid carrying disposables and avoid excessive noises that may disturb people outside our social cycle. Last, but not least, we must not feed animals that eventually appear, in addition to not disturbing the nature around us.

I believe that everyone understands the importance of these rules, which guarantees the execution, willingly, of them.
