Political polemics, for one. Utopian novels, for another. Haggard - 06/09/2009 05:29:54 AM 1176 Views
People always recommend I read Ayn Rand Сталин - 06/09/2009 02:51:25 PM 1343 Views

Canterbury Tales by Chaucer. In Ye Olde English, it's harder to translate than ancient Greek. *NM* IndigoAjah - 06/09/2009 05:07:49 PM 722 Views
Oh man, the prologue to the Wife of Bath was horrible. Brian - 06/09/2009 05:11:39 PM 1190 Views
The Canterbury Tales are not Old English. They are Middle English. Сталин - 06/09/2009 05:59:59 PM 1350 Views
Indeed, translating old english, and reading middle english are very very different Brian - 06/09/2009 07:11:13 PM 1247 Views
Edit: ignore this, what I had before was blatantly untrue *NM* IndigoAjah - 07/09/2009 12:11:37 AM 731 Views
As I'm translating some ancient Greek right now, I call bullshit on that. *NM* Ghavrel - 06/09/2009 08:45:46 PM 676 Views
EDIT: Last post was basically equally bullsh*t IndigoAjah - 07/09/2009 12:17:01 AM 1240 Views
I was going to, but I felt I had already been pedantic enough. *NM* Сталин - 07/09/2009 02:34:04 AM 739 Views

Dubliners and A Portrait of the Artist as a Young Man Vodalus - 06/09/2009 08:24:07 PM 1228 Views
I liked a Portrait of the Artist, personally, though the (lack of real) punctuation grated *NM* IndigoAjah - 07/09/2009 12:18:50 AM 648 Views
I didn't mind Portrait of the Artist as a Young Dog...I mean Man Сталин - 07/09/2009 02:40:14 AM 1214 Views
Shame on you. Those books are truly Great. Especially Portrait. Joker - 12/09/2009 10:52:40 PM 1255 Views

Never have I seen such good acting in such a dreadful movie/mini-series. Legolas - 07/09/2009 05:44:47 PM 1165 Views
I love really really bad TV movies sometimes....they make for lots of laughter Brian - 07/09/2009 06:06:38 PM 1143 Views
Actually, you might like it. As in, think it's good. Legolas - 07/09/2009 06:11:14 PM 1195 Views
