    Ah well, I'm really bad with the lecturers' names. I was in that module last year and didn't even remember him.:confused: I'm in Gender Politics (or something) next semester.

    Yeah I had it today

    He just went through the questions which are on Blackboard (same page as the link to AU.html). Didn't break us into groups or anything, just got feedback from the class in general.

    Pretty relaxed seminar :p

    I attached a Word document of the Annals with just the Viking parts. The main page on Blackboard has everything on it, with the Viking part highlighted. I copied those parts and put them all together because printing it all would be about 60 pages!!!

    Please don't post lecturer's notes up here lads, it's a little bit not kosher.

    Just curious - why is it not kosher? Is it because the notes are the lecturer's (intellectual) property?

    Bingo. You don't own the copyright to it, so posting it here is a bit of a no-no.

    What is the reading for the Vikings seminar this week? Is it still the Annals of Ulster?

    This week's work is on black board. Go to 'course information', then 'the first five weeks' and then 'week 3'. Click on the seminar 3 link.

    By the way, did anyone find out about the work for Culture and Society? Is there any?

    I didnt go to my Europe seminar today... oh well!

    The Vikings reading looks quite intimidating and I don't have alot of time today, so may not go to that either :o I've been to 2 of each so far, so I'll be alright :)

    For those wondering about the readings for the Interwar Europe seminar, I picked mine up last week in the SU shop for 9.99. It wasn't included with the other seminar readings for some reason.

    The first bit is about the five aspects of Fascism and then there is an opinion piece afterwards supposedly by Mussolini. I had my seminar on it earlier today. It was handy enough. If you remember the key points from the reading you should be grand.

    The readings for the Vikings seminar are ginormous, particularly the one about Anskar. We can't be expected to read all of that surely? :(

    Is there a lot of reading? I'm just wondering if I'd get it done before 11:00 am, assuming I pick it up at 9:30 am.

    I'd say you should be able to get the basics in that time. It's not a heavy load of material really. The first bit is about five main points so as long as you know what the points are you should be alright. For the second bit on Mussolini what I did was underline bits I found interesting and important which worked fine for me.

    Good luck. :cool:

    If you have Doherty for the seminar I wouldn't worry too much, he's pretty easy going.

    I've been trying to get through the first Vikings reading and it's so tough. I commend anyone who gets through all of that. I reckon it's harder to get through than the Lisbon Treaty.

    No to Anskar!
