Scott Lord on Shakespeare: Silent Film- Cymbeline
On our return to "one of the 19 floors in Cambridge" we were greeted by a new rabbit in the courtyard (a baby rabbit) and a new possum (a baby possum) within a half our of each other, The possum is at the moment smaller than the rabbit- they are approximately the same size.
In Rockport, I quickly passed an Introduction to Philosophy Mooc from the University of Edinburgh,
100% on the first two weeks of quizzes, and we're now in our third week.
While there I began two other MOOCs, Harvard Poetry and Penn Poetry- so it was what I did while there, and there is a lot left.
Now here, another MOOC has begun, Shakespeare from the University of Warwick, which is virtually Stratford on Avon.
So here's the updated listed.
Completed:
University of Copenhagen: Scandinavian Film
University of Edinburgh: Modern Art
University of Leicester: Richard III
University of Sheffield: British Literature
In Progress:
Harvard University: Poetry
University of Pennsylvania: Poetry
University of Warwick: Shakespeare
Upcoming:
University of Copenhagen: Kierkegaard
University of Nottingham: Literature
The heartbreak is Literature from Brown University- it is still in progress but I won't promise its completion. Of interest were lectures on the novel Manon Lescaut and Pride and Prejudice. Usually I do read novels rather than take courses, but the vacation by the ocean and the incoming schedule of courses made it so the reading of a novel a week was more something I did last summer. I still might read one to four of the novels from the course and watch the accompanying lectures for those novels.
