"Perfectionism: a modern malady born in the Middle Ages"
"Perfectionism: a modern malady born in the Middle Ages"
#1
The thread title is the title of an Ideas article/episode - transcript here.

One of the things mentioned in the article is Sir Gawain and the Green Knight - the article's writer says that Gawain was perfect but lost his perfection. I'm wondering whether we read the same story... because I thought that Gawain was impulsive (enough so to accept the Green Knight's challenge in the first place). Am I missing somethng in the story?
