1- They were noble fighters who battled for things

2- They start fighting about Emily.

3- I think the Knight would teach his listeners to be kind and brave like him and to not fight over small things when it can be easily worked out, such as fighting over girls when there are plenty. "Palamon could not recognize her at first among all the other pretty women" (McCaughrean, 14).

4- The story shows chivalry just like the knight.

1. They are trying to be brave and heroic for the woman.

2. they are both not fully aware of the fact that only one of them is going to survive so it won't be a happy ending

3. I think he wants the audience to be aware of what you are doing and be sure of it or else you might be disappointed with the outcome. In the text it states, "palamon could not recognize her at first among all the other women, they were all quite pretty." This shows how he didn't know that there were other people out there and he didn't really like her.

4. This shows how the knight has learned from either experience or he is wanting people to know not to make a bad decision unless you are sure of the circumstances. It also shows how the knight is a brave thoughtful person and he's showing what might happen if you're not careful.

1- Palamon and Arcite seem like ideal knights because they are loyal and follow the code of chivalry. 2- But they fall short of the ideal because they are fighting over a girl and then the two cousins aren't staying loyal to each other and there competing against each other instead. 3- The knights tail teaches the listeners that it is not worth fighting against your own family. In the text it states, "Palomane could not recognize her at first among the other women. They were all quite pretty..."(McCaughrean 14). So, Paloman realizes it wasn't worth fighting over her cousin for one girl because all the girls are pretty and Emily isn't the only one. 4- The knights tale reflects who the Knight is because it shows what he thinks of the story and the way he told it describes what he thinks.

1. Palamon and arcite seem like ideal knights because they both fought and survived a war. "Athenian soldiers searching the battle field for their own wounded companions found two young knights lying side by side."

2. Palamon and Arcite fall short later on because they are living in the same castle and fighting over a girl. They end up fighting each other to death which is not ideal at all.

3. a lesson that the knight would like to teach his listeners is to not do dumb things in the text it states "Friend he said touching his cousins cheek. What have we done?"Palmon realize that he just made a huge mistake for no reason the reason he must have told the people is to let them know not to be stupid.

4. The knights tale reflects on the identity of the knight himself because it teaches him to be loyal kind and generous. This is also the code of chivalry that the knight lives by.

They were all quite pretty" (McCaughrean, 14). When Palamon killed Arcite he realized there were many other girls and he regrets killing his cousi

1. Palamon and Arcite seem like ideal knights because they know how to fight they both followed the code of chivalry and they also treat everyone as if they are also knights. The text states," despite the cold stones and hard floors of their own towertop prison, both Arcite and his cousin Palamon gradually recovered from their wounds. Their devoted friendship made the passing days, wees and months bearable, though both grew dreadfully bored."

2. Palamon and Arcite turned on eachother. They used to be best friends but when they met a girl that they both fell in love with they turned on each other and that does show that they would not be good knights.

3. The knight might hope to teach his listeners that no friendship or friend is guaranteed to never turn on you. The text states,: You Judas, you cuckoo. Where are you vows of life long friendship now. The first chance you get you stab me in the back."

4. The knight is trying to teach everyone a story and shows that the knight is very wise. The knight is the person that has the most social class and this shows that the knight is going to be wise and tell and show people what to do because he knows best.

1. They are very good warriors and risk their lives in battle. They went to battle here and fought until they were captured and then also risked their lives jousting each other

2. They act immature and selfish about the girl. They both fight each other for that girl. Knights are supposed to be generous and mature but they both wanted to kill each other because of Emily.

3. You might learn don't be to focused on one thing because who knows what you will find if you look. On pg 14 Palamon kills Arcite to win the girl and then the text states "Palamon could not recognize her among the other women they were all quite pretty.". Palamon and Arcite were so focused on Emily they were willing to kill but then Palamon instantly regretted it when he saw all the other girls. If you just keep on open mind you can find something better later.

4. It represents how not all knights have to be that chivalrous and the knight chooses to be that way

1) In what ways do Palamon and Arcite seem like ideal knights?

They never talked bad about who they were fighting for even when they were locked in a tower for years.

2) How do Palamon and Arcite fall short of the ideal?

They start to fight over a girl and instead of trying to resolve it they just envy each other.

3) What lesson might the Knight hope to teach his listeners?

I think the lesson the knight wants to teach is to not fight over little things because it will ruin a life long friendship over nothing. "Palamon could not recognize her at first among all the other women," The girl he killed his best friend for he could not even recognize her.

4) How does “The Knight’s Tale” reflect the identity of the knight himself (the storyteller)?

The knight in the prolog introduced himself as distinguished, truth, honor, and generosity, but his story tells about how one little thing can ruin a life long friendship. His story reflects his identity because the knight is showing that he might have learned from his friends experience or his and wants people to not make the same mistake.

1. Palamon and Arcite are both strong, chivalrous knights.

2. Palamon and Arcite are too competitive with each other

3. Don't obsess over one thing there will always be more, "Duke Theseus was there, and Emily too, though Palamon could not recognize her at first among the other women. They were all quite pretty . . ."

4. The knight wanted this story to show how many knights are strong chivalrous, but some can go above and beyond

1. Palamon and Arcite seem like ideal knights because of how they treat each other with love and compassion.

2. Palamon and Arcite don't seem like ideal knights because of how they treat each other over some girl.

3. The lesson the knight hopes to teach his listeners is that there is no point of arguing over something small when Palamon and Arcite both had something more important. "I am a Knight, a most distinguished man. From the day I learned to ride I have followed the code of chivalry--truth, honor, generousness, and courtesy."

4. This story reflects the knight himself because he has either experienced this tragedy or he wants people to understand that this shouldn't be something that would cause conflict between two people or more.

1. Palamon and Arcite seem like ideal knights because before they were taken imprisoned by Duke Theasus, they were fighting in battle fighting for their lives.

2. Palamon and Arcite fall short of the ideal because they are knights and fighting over the same women.

3. The knight might hope to teach the listeners of the tale to not be obsessed and fight over the same women even though Palamon & Arcite are both knights. "Hanging back in the shadow of her brother in-law, Emily said: 'Urgh, do I have to? His hair's awfully thin already, and I don't like his mouth.' She had a voice like the teeth of a comb clicking" (Platt 14).

4. The Knights tale reflects his identity in many ways during the tale, for example, maybe he has experienced the same thing or something very similar so he doesn't want others to experience this. Also, the tale shows that he is a strong noble fighter and made a story about love.

1- Arcite and Palamon seemed like ideal knights because they were noble fighters who battled over Emily in a joust because they are trying to show braveness to her and impress her.

2- They fall short of the ideal when they start forgetting about their brotherhood and start fighting over a girl. They also kind of broke the laws because one of them was supposed to get executed.

3- I think that the knight would teach his listeners to be kind and brave like him and to not fight over small things when it can be easily worked out, such as fighting over one girl when there is plenty."Palamon could not recognize her at first among all the other pretty women" (McCaughrean, 14).

4- The knight's tale reflects the identity of the knight because the story is about showing chivalry and bravery and those are some of the names he gives himself.
