1/19: teaching Trollope

Though I'm teaching more courses than usual this semester and am nervous about the work-load, the topics of the courses are appealing to me, and that's a good thing. In particular I'm pleased about the senior seminar I'm running on Classics in Trollope's novels. This evening--in preparation for tomorrow's class--I got to read Trollope (one of my all-time favorite authors) as part of my job. That makes me a lucky person indeed.
