Drag each label to the correct image.
Anglo-Saxon epic poetry and medieval romances have traits that distinguish them from each other.

Answered by maham237 @



Answer:

epic: absence of love, heroism, violence serious

medieval : mystery and fantasy, devotion to a woman, courtly loved, lighthearted, chivalry, women and romance

Explanation:

Epic poems are long tales of an epic hero. They often follow the hero's journey plot line which includes a variety of battles that test the hero's strength and perseverance as well as reveal his weakness. Since women were not often on the battlefield, stories of love are not common.

Medieval poetry romanticizes the world of knights. There are tales of victory, but also love and romance. There is a fantastical and mysterious element to them because of their romantic nature.
