Die Funktion der Gauvainfigur unterlag einem historischen Wandel. Als Hofakteur der klassischen Romane reagierte er im Interesse der Artusgesellschaft auf deren Defizienzen, wodurch die von den Störungen provozierte Handlung zur Ruhe kam. In den späteren Romanen setzte ein Emanzipationsprozess zur Rolle des Protagonisten ein. Die mit dieser Rolle verbundene, personale Motivation stand im Widerstreit zu der im Gattungswissen verankerten Funktion der Gauvainfigur, was zu Kausalitätsproblemen in den Texten führte. Trotz ihres Emanzipationsprozesses aber blieb die Figur in einem konstanten Erzählmuster von erstaunlich hoher Festigkeit verankert. In diesem Muster hatte Chrétien de Troyes die Figur antagonistisch zu der des Protagonisten und der Figur Keus, des anderen Hofakteurs, eingesetzt. Dieses Muster beschreibt die Einsätze und Handlungstendenz der verschiedenen Figuren und konnte in allen Romanen Chrétiens als Grundstruktur des Agierens Gauvains verifiziert werden, erwies sich aber insbesondere in den Romanen mit Gauvainqueste als Motor seines Handelns.

This study of Cheshire and Lancashire society in the late fourteenth and early fifteenth centuries is a unique attempt to reconstruct the social life of an English region in the later Middle Ages. Drawing on the voluminous archives of the two palatinates and the extensive muniment collections of local families, it offers an unusually rich and wide-ranging analysis of a dynamic regional society at a dramatic stage in its history.
