What a pleasure listening to her lectures. I’m retired and enrolled in two graduate courses in a different field. $$! 
I listen to this as inspiration from my feeling  that the American university system is a big, business scam. I read Sir Gawain and the Green Knight on spring break for relaxation and to forget the nonsense, poorly written assigned, expensive college textbook for a different curriculum. Then I came across these lectures on  medieval literature for easy listening. I learned so much from her lecture on Sir Gawain and the Green Knight that I missed from my reading. I must go back and re-read it, but in a different translation. Nothing to due with my graduate courses, but more educational. 
Thank you Professor!
