History of Medieval England - Thursday 6th Period: Discussion 2: Dark Ages Britain

[prof-methos.livejournal.com]

All right. So we touched briefly on King Arthur of gloriously fake memory, Alfred the Great who actually lived, and Anglo-Saxon Britain. Now it's time to talk.

Your homework, which should sound familiar already is to select a topic from your readings and cut and paste give me at least 100 words. Ready, steady, go.

Zero mumbles something under her breath. It might be, "Stupid peasants."

Lana looks at her curiously. "You have a problem with peasants?"

"Up 'til they tried to burn me at the stake? No." She made a face at Lana. "Locker 327 incident. Last October, over Parents' Weekend?"

"Wow. I'm more glad than ever that I steer way clear of Locker 327. I guess I was dead sick pretty busy over Parent's Weekend and missed that. But I think I'd probably share your feeling if that had happened to me."

Vala's glaring at Zero again, this time really annoyed.

Zero really doesn't have anything against peasants in general. It's just certain peasants. The kind with torches.

Vala, on the other hand, is very conflicted on the subject, having both grown up a peasant herself *and* having been burnt all the way to death by other peasants. Twice.

Zero, of course, has no way of knowing any of this.
