Arthurian Traditions (04/20)

[godinakilt.livejournal.com]

No, Camulus wasn't celebrating 4/20. Because class isn't ridiculously late today. Not at all. I resent the implication.

"The Victorian period of English literature," he began without preamble. "Another period during which the legend of Arthur returned with a vengeance. We'll be looking at the works of Alfred, Lord Tennyson, who wrote two important works. One, the short poem 'The Lady of Shalott', and two, the 12-book epic The Idylls of the King. I want them both read for Tuesday's class."

The rest of the lesson was spent with a short lecture on the life of Tennyson and *handwavey* other important Victorian works about King Arthur.

[[No, don't have to read all the Idylls. Sorry for late again, I'm just a doofus. Class will be open for interaction as long as you wish.]]

Kawalsky signed in, but was bored to tears...almost.

Boone is rather contentedly napping.

Macbeth signed in. And sometimes mostly paid attention. And plotted world domination in the margins of his notes, as per the norm.

John signed in. And wondered why McKilty wanted to see his boss.

Allie was there and mostly paying attention.
