Institute of Historical Research online conference

Post by EC2 » Mon November 21st, 2011, 7:32 pm

The IHR is continuing its seminar of last week concerning the overlap between historical fiction and historical academia by making the lectures/speeches/opinion pieces available online, and encourages comments. Hilary Mantel and Alison Weir were two of the speakers. I took part in a panel discussion on the popularity of HF. Url here to the site if anyone is interested. http://ihrconference.wordpress.com/
Les proz e les vassals
Souvent entre piez de chevals
Kar ja li coard n’I chasront

'The Brave and the valiant
Are always to be found between the hooves of horses
For never will cowards fall down there.'

Of course, I also enjoyed your podcast too.
