Personally,
I found this reading to be intriguing and easy to read through, as
the medieval times are full of curiosity. What I got out of the
reading was the theme of karma or the "what goes around comes
around." The woman is portrayed as a fraudulent wife and the
reader can only hope for justice. The fact that the woman betrayed
his husband and that the husband was able to get revenge satisfies
the reader in a way. This same kind of feeling is felt for tv shows
or movies when the supposed protagonist ends up being victorious or
gets their way with things.
Bisclavret
teaches a moral to animals that in order for animals to interact with
humans, they need to or at least seem to be domesticated by humans.
On the other hand, humans such as myself see this as a form of
precaution. It is amazing that this remains true today. This story
still feels like an unrealistic fable because it just so happens that
one person under the king cared that much for a werewolf that he was
willing to keep an eye on the werewolf's actions and convince the
king that he was a human.
