okay, here's the semester educational reading score*:
likes:
voltaire's candide
sir thomas more's utopia
excerpts from beowulf (translated)dislikes:
moliere's play tartuffe
beowulf (untranslated)
excerpts from chaucer's canterbury talesindifferent:
malory's morte d'arthur
marie de france's lanval & chevrefoil
gawain and the green knight*this list SO does not represent all of the reading i have had to do, including introductions, footnotes, responses, etc. in the last semester alone, but in my word-choked mind we give you the reader's digest condensed version.
because you needed to know, yes? glad that's settled, then.

Do you learn new things about those pieces when studying them at a college level, or do you have to re-hash the stuff you learned in high school? Maybe that's the reason for the like/dislike/indifference...
