Settle into your morning with an hour of talk about T H White, his biography as written by Sylvia Townsend Warner, and discussion about his life, work and torments. From our book launch last week.

“The modern world is apt to forget that several people were Christians in the remote past, and in Lancelot’s time there were no Protestants—except John Scotus Erigena.” —T. H. White, The Once and Future King.
This makes me want to read some medieval Irish philosophy.

I’m quite pleased at finishing Le Morte D’Arthur before returning to The Once and Future King. So much of it really is expanded and in between Mallory’s text. She in the following quote is Nimue.
‘Than she and Merlyon wente over the see unto the londe of Benwyke there as Kyng Ban was kyng, that had grete warre ayenste Kyng Claudas.
