Monty Python and the Holy Grail likes to mock just about everything that went on in medieval times, such as the black death and chivalry and the black night. Some of the violence is funny because the black knight just acts like its nothing “tis but a scratch” then once all his limbs are gone he continues to bite at king Arthur. I would say they are just a bunch of role players none of them have any idea of whats going on half the time. The black death is made fun of when they walk through a village where there is just poop and dead bodies and people crawling everywhere. In Beowulf and Sir Gawain the heroes are actually heroes in Monty Python everything is a joke they're is no chivalry or heroism
