Title:
Knights-Servitor and Rapist Knights: A Contribution to the Parzival/Gawan Question [The essay shows that Wolfram’s two heroes, Parzival and Gawan, are closely bound by the reciprocal themes of knightly service and rape. The author defines rape as violence against women with sexual intent, but also seizure of anything at all without service. Title note supplied by Feminae.].
