Brian gave us
a glimpse of Ralph Waldo Emerson and his "tree hugger" ways. Be prepared
for the bushy sideburns!
Lisa did a wonderful
feminist rendition of her critic Laura Mulvey. She also brought several
lovely pictures that sent her critic into a hissy fit!
Katie S. was a
very animated Friedrich von Schiller. Ode to Schiller--you'll see!
Dan was read us
a great poem by John Dryden. However, when it comes to European anthems
he is hilarious!
I was Terry Eagleton
. . . a man and a Marxist . . . this should be interesting!
