High Seas, High Stakes: Naval Battles That Changed…
Varð fyrir vonbrigðum með þessa fyrirlestra. Bæði fannst mér kennarinn Shutt vera ónákvæmur í vali sínu á hvað væri "battle". Stundum var það einstök orrusta en í öðrum tilvikum var það samansafn átaka á sama svæði yfir langt tímabil. Einnig eru áherslur á vestræna bardaga sem þá mikilvægustu. Ekkert er minnst á tímabilið í Asíu og Indlandi áður en Evrópubúar og Bandaríkjamenn sóttu þangað en þar voru margir bardagar sem skiptu sköpum um þróun stórvelda þar. Að síðustu voru skýringar Shutts ónákvæmar á stundum og oft beið ég eftir því að heyra skýringar sem ég vissi að voru mikilvægar í viðkomandi viðburðum en Shutt skautaði framhjá.… (plus d'informations)
This series is awesome! It starts with western civilization's earliest literature and tells the historical development through literature. The coolest part is that each literary work is covered in a lecture by a leading expert on that particular work/author.
Interesting course. I loved hearing the professor read Old English!
Interesting views on the basics of early Western literature!
