A few hours ago, I came to the college library and confined myself to a cubicle because I have a 10-15 page paper due tomorrow, and I simply could not concentrate at my desk at home. Why is that? So, I am actually making progress now. The paper is for my Renaissance literature course, and I finally narrowed down my topic to societal gender roles in the pre-Shakespearean comedy Fulgens and Lucrece by Henry Medwall. It was written during the early Tudor period, during the reign of King Henry VIII, and it isn't bad. For anyone who enjoys Shakespearean plays, I would recommend this play because it is interesting to see how many parallels there are in structure and content of this play by Medwall with the later plays written by Shakespeare.
Okay, okay... back to work...

Found you on Blogoholics. Your study area looks great. I am a fan of Shakespeare. I guess I'll have to check out Medwell.
