Course Description: Ekkehard of St Gall's Waltharius is the most significant (mock) epic of the High Middle Ages and tells the story of Waltharius, his beloved Hiltgund, his friend Hagen, and the adventures they have as they return from exile at the court of Attila the Hun and encounter the greedy King Gunther. Ekkehard's story is told with humour and erudition, plundering the texts of the Classical, Late Antique and Medieval worlds. This is an ongoing group, with participants part of the way through the second of three books. New members are welcome at any time.
