British University Dropping Study of Chaucer as it ‘Decolonises’ Curriculum
“would end all teaching on texts central to the development of the English language, including the Dark Age epic poem Beowulf, as well as Sir Gawain and the Green Knight”
“ Foundational texts such asThe Canterbury Tales and the Anglo-Saxon epic Beowulf would no longer be taught, under proposals to scrap medieval literature. Instead, the English faculty will be refocused to drop centuries of the literary canon and deliver a “decolonised” curriculum devoted to diversity.”
“ Professors were told that, to facilitate change, management planned to stop all English language courses, cease medieval literature, and reduce early modern literature offerings.
Despite Chaucer’s position as “the father of English literature”, he will no longer be taught if plans currently under consultation go ahead.
They would end all teaching on texts central to the development of the English language, including the Dark Age epic poem Beowulf, as well as Sir Gawain and the Green Knight.
Sir Thomas Malory’s Le Morte D’Arthur, the Viking sagas, and all works written earlier than 1500 would also be removed from the syllabus.

3 choices as I see it.
1. Get involved with the school bored where these decisions are made and effect direct local change
2. Find another (private?) school for your kids
3. Suck it up buttercup, nothing stays the same. -

Didn’t see College or I wouldn’t have responded.
But now I will.
Attending any college is a choice. Don’t like the offering? Pick a different restaurant. I know, it’s hard for ducks
Have you thought of moving to “England” (lol)? -
I've been told knowing Chaucer won't land anyone a job. What's college for, anyway?

Obviously you care more about denigrating me because you keep making these inane posts than talking about English literature and it’s value to the foundations of Western Civilization. You obviously are ill prepared to discuss this subject or others like Shakespeare the Greek tragedies etc.doogie said:Didn’t see College or I wouldn’t have responded.
