minstrelsy
In Medieval Europe, a minstrel was a singer or musician who recited heroic poetry for the nobility. Minstrels created their own tales, but would often embellish the works of others in their performance. They were commonplace in courts, entertaining lords and courtiers with chansons de geste, or epic poems. After Sir Gawain's success cutting off the Green Knight's head, King Arthur and the rest of the court return to their festivities, referred to as minstrelsy due to their entertaining nature.
Saladin
Saladin was a Muslim sultan of Egypt and Syria. He received widespread support from Muslims after being proclaimed as the leader of jihad, or holy war, defending themselves from Christianity. Notably, he was an important figure in the Battle of Hattin against the Crusaders, capturing the city of Jerusalem in 1187. Despite his triumphs, he was not baptized, and thus resides in Limbo for eternity. Dante included him here to show how even the most revered, respectable figures are destined for punishment by rejecting Christianity.
