  Episode 84 - The Lady of Shalott

  Aug 19, 202625 minS7

  Two friends and academics recap classic literature and take it off its pedestal. In our eighty-fourth episode, we continue our month-long miniseries on short narrative poems with Alfred Lord Tennyson's Arthurian retelling, 'The Lady of Shalott'. Abby thinks it's a banger, Daniel is generally unimpressed and concerned with toilet issues, and we get some very thinly-veiled sexual awakenings. Cover art © Catherine Wu. Episode Theme: Wagner, Parsifal, Act I - 'Transformation Music'. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

  Episode 83 - Rime of the Ancient Mariner

  Aug 12, 202638 minS7

  Two friends and academics recap classic literature and take it off its pedestal. In our eighty-third episode, we continue a weekly, month-long miniseries on short narrative poems. Today we cover Samuel Taylor Coleridge's 1798 Gothic-Romantic-philosophical epic sea yarn, 'Rime of the Ancient Mariner'. We get amused by a bassoon and confused by the gloss, just as Coleridge intended. Probably. Cover art © Catherine Wu. Episode Theme: Mendelssohn, 'Hebrides Overture'. Hosted on Acast.
