Abstract
Abstract:Saying the 'right thing' is often a motif, a diversion, and a matter of life or death in Arthurian literature. This paper offers an approach to teaching chivalric texts that depict sexual violence by considering two narratives—George Saunders's 'My Chivalric Fiasco' and Geoffrey Chaucer's 'Wife of Bath's Tale'—that shift stylistic registers as they emphasize various levels of unexamined violence muted or altogether missed by the language of justice.
