The Fallen Nature of Man in Le Morte D’Arthur and Troilius and Criseyde
For the second essay in Medieval Studies: Romance in first semester 1994, we were asked to write 3000 words on an issue relating to genre/romance in the work of both Chaucer and Malory.
It was due only a week after that first essay in late May, so I can only guess I worked at them at the same time but was too lazy to get the first one in early. With my previous studies it looks like I had to look for religious aspects in the works. I even dropped a passage from Screwtape in, which seems gratuitous.
The essay suggests a fair bit of work and is reasonably coherent.
I had lost this word file and since I had no paper backup, I went searching old document backup discs to no avail. I found an old Win98 computer in the garage that still fired up and I happily found it backed up there.
Dr Moores gave me a 6 (from 7) for the course.
