Medieval Werewolves Course
Medieval Werewolves Course
Stories of shapeshifters and werewolves go back centuries. Anglo-Norman writer Marie de France writes about Bisclavret in the twelfth century, but although her werewolf is the best-known it is not the only, or even the first tale of werewolf knights in the middle ages. In this course we will discover a number of medieval werewolves, from the moving to the horrifying, and begin to understand what makes werewolves so compelling.
Included in this course:
Eight weekly hour-long (or thereabouts) researched and insightful lectures on the texts from Dr. Paul Moffett, a PhD with years of university teaching experience.
Visual aids, in the form of slides or videos to accompany each lecture
Access to a discord discussion board where you can talk to me and to your fellow students about the text, the lectures, or whatever you want to!
Access to at least two live seminars where I will respond to directly to your questions and insights about the texts.
