Robin Hood and the ballad tradition
Mar. 16th, 2006 05:55 pmWell, just because.
Mind you, this is NOT as good as I would like it to be. We had to discuss certain things in our presentation and paper, and that's why it doesn't have more on things like the changing legend and whatnot.
We had to include these specific elements in our talk/paper:
-summary or explanation of topic(s)
-general impact topic has had on England/English literature/culture
-one or two specific aspects of the topic
-brief summary of sources of criticism
-connection/reference to one or two texts on our syllabus (this was somewhat difficult and I'm not sure I was terribly successful)
And we had 3/4 pages to do this in. My paper is 5. And I don't feel it's complete enough. But anyway...
Citations in MLA format. Fun. =P (I don't have page numbers for my e-book source or the website, and hoping that's not going to get me in trouble...)
I do not think that this is my best paper, by ANY means, and it drives me a bit nuts because there was so much MORE I would have included and I wish I had been given longer to research. BUT, it's interesting stuff.
At least, it is if you're remotely interested. Heh.
( Yeah, click if you want to read my english paper. Don't blame you if you don't, but... I'm just that much of a geek that it would interest ME. )
If anyone's interested, I have "The Wreck of the Edmund Fitzgerald," "The Ballad of John and Yoko," "American Pie," and a version of "Tam Lin" (I think) on my computer. :) "Wreck" is a favorite of mine, actually.
Yeah, dunno why I decided to post this. Except maybe to use my new Robin Hood icon! =D
Now, off to figure out why my mood theme isn't working right. Hmm.
Also, yes! I am adoring my paid account! I wish you would tell me who you are! :) But anyway, if there is anything you'd like written or made, let me know! Really!!!!
