Arthurian Traditions Lesson 15
Camulus has returned. He is seated at his desk, frowning at the book in his hand as he reads. It seems to be a copy of Cross & Slover, but if someone were to look over his shoulder they would see the hidden copy of 'The Care and Feeding of Hamsters'.
He looks up once the class has arrived, hurriedly shoving both books into his desk drawer.
"Failte a-rithist," he intones. "For today's class, I want you to come up with a list of the traits of chivalry that we have encountered in our readings. The behaviour of the knights, the behaviour of the women, some of the consequences of breaking this code, what constitutes chivalry in the modern day and age. I'm hoping for an in-class discussion, but I'll want a few notes on what we come up with next class."
He grins, rather evilly. "And as threatened, I want a progress report on your final project. If this is something you pull together four hours before it's due - that's December the 8th, one week from now, next Thursday - it'll reflect in your grade."
[[And I'm off to sing to old people in Gaelic. Back in a few.]]

"Chivalry is a nice thought but wasn't it essentially a thought? Knights weren't exactly the best examples of well-bred behavior in their day, particularly to how they treated the ladies."
