Medievalism v. Modernism
Mark Twain and Malory
We discussed the handout from A Connecticut Yankee in King Arthur's Court, and Mr. Potratz passed out and additional handout from Twain, a chapter from Life on the Mississippi in which he lambastes medievalism and specifically Sir Walter Scott for its pernicious influence on the American South.
Mr. P, announced that he would be out of class on Friday, and that there would be a short quiz over the two Twain handouts on Monday.
