In this course, Professor Michael D. C. Drout traces literature back to its ultimate sources in oral tradition. Drout shows us how works as varied as the Odyssey, Beowulf, the Finnish Kalevala, and epic songs from the former Yugoslavia were shaped by their origins as songs sung - and composed - before a live audience. Understanding the oral roots of these great works lets us see them in a whole new light. From classical texts to contemporary digital media, Drout demonstrates how the dynamics of oral tradition shape the verbal art that makes us who we are.

As always, Professor Drout's enthusiasm made this a great read.
I've just started the Illiad so this series of lectures are very pertinent.

Dr. Drout, we've never met, but I'm a student of yours. I've been listening to your lectures since I myself was in college and had to pick them up from the library.

I can tell your mentor ment a lot to you. The final lecture in this course made me tear up. I was an English teacher for ten years. Your lessons, and his, live on in my students. That's the consolation after losing a great teacher and mentor.

Thank you.

Inspiring

this is the missing jigsaw piece in mosy humanities programs. orality vs. text is a fundamental part of how our society communicates and Drout is surprisingly artuculate about it

excellent
