試題 :
1. Analyze in detail on eof the following and comment on the issues involved
and thier significance:
(A) "What the Devil are you doing, men?" he demanded. "Are you letting these
effeminate creatures slip away unhurt? Not one must escape alive! Think of
your own right hands, which have played their part in so many battles and
subjected thirty kingdoms to my sovereignty! Remember your ancestors, whom
the Romans, then at the height of their power, made tributaries. Remember
your liberty, which these halflings, who haven't anything like your
strength, plan to take away from you! Not one must escape alive! Not one
must escape, I say!"
(B) The knight saw a tower ahead of him more massive than any he had ever seen;
there could be no finer tower. Leaning on a window ledge was King Bademagu.
Careful and extact in all matters of honor and right, he wished to observe
and practice loyalty above all. Leaning next to him was his son, who always
did the very opposite as best as he could, for disloyalty pleased him. No
cruelty, villainy, or treason ever worried or wearied him. From thier
position they had seen the knight cross the bridge in heavy pain and agony.
Anger and resentment caused Meleagant's color to change; he realized that
he would now be challenged for the queen. Yet he was the knid of knight
who feared no man, however strong or fierce. Were he not disloyal and evil,
there would have been no finer knight.
2. (A) Compare and contrast the motif of exile in "The History of the Knights
of the Britain" and "The Knight of the Cart".
OR (B) "Androgyny, or the re-entry of the 'feminine' principle as a civilizing
force into medieval literature, can be seen in the romance....Here
women take some part, are themselves served,and...insofar as they are
served become a metaphor for justice and right." Comment on the
statement by by discussing the problem of female desire in "The Knight
of the Cart".
NOTE: Be analytical rather than descriptive; back up your argument with textual
evidence and, when appropriate, with reference to other relevant
materials covered in class.
