Description


<figure class="alignright size-medium"></figure>



Wes & Erin continue their discussion of two of Marie de France’s most famous lais—”Laustic” and “Guigemar”—and how their narratives marry the “flesh” of text, art, and symbology, to the “spirit” of the spoken word (via dialogue, oaths and covenants, and authorial commentary), in order, perhaps, to communicate something of the mysterious and dangerous union that is romantic love.





Upcoming Episodes: Arthur (1981), Medea (Euripides), A New Leaf (Elaine May).
