Mean Green Hermeneutic Machine w/ Jay

We take a dive into Arthuriana, adaptation, and more, as we talk about The Green Knight wit our good friend Jay! Considering how not only the poem Sir Gawain and the Green Knight connects with the Dev Patel film, but also exploring the themes involved and how they can be treated by a contemporary framing. And, of course, as we talk about adapting things, we go beyond just this pair, briefly going into Scorcese's The Last Temptation of Christ, but also interpretations of broader Arthuriana, and of course, how could we not go into Lord of the Rings? Lots to dive into and explore in history and today with this one, enjoy!   Check out Jay on Library Punk: http://librarypunk.gay/   If you can and are interested in early episodes and our bonus content, soon to be plenty more, check out our Patreon! https://www.patreon.com/leftpage  Also!
