(Sorry guys that I haven't been posting; I've been crazy busy. I'll try not to get so far behind again.)
1. Roland was prideful and died because of it. Beowulf was warned about the dangers of pride. Do you think that Roland wasn't warned about pride and this lack of warning was the cause of his downfall?
2. Was Charlemagne irresponsible for not acting on the warnings that came in his dreams?
3. Was Ganelon prideful? Why did Roland nominate Ganelon?
4. How does this epic poem differ from the Iliad, the Odyssey, Beowulf, etc.
5. Is Roland a tragic hero? If so, what is his tragic flaw?
