Guy of Warwick
(redirected from Gui de Warewic)

    Also found in: Wikipedia, Hutchinson 0.07 sec.
Guy of Warwick (wŏr`ĭk), English legendary hero, popularized by an anonymous 14th-century rhymed romance. Guy won the earl of Warwick's daughter and saved England from the Danes by killing the giant Colbrand; he later renounced worldly vanities and ended his days as a hermit. The story probably has a historical basis. Its popularity lasted through the 17th and 18th cent.
