"And gladly wolde he lerne and gladly teche."
from Geoffrey Chaucer's Canterbury Tales, General Prologue, line 308
Re natura usoris
[edit | edit source]A medievalist by nature, I am a graduate student in historical Germanic linguistics, having also studied the literatures of medieval Spain and England (all at a brickiversity). I am at Wikiversity because of its commitment to the original structure and goals of the medieval university, something that has become quite rare in the more financially-oriented universities of our time.
I have been a member of the Wikiversity community since July 30th, 2007.
For the time being, I will be active on Wikiversity about once per week.
