"Hound of the Baskervilles"
by Arthur Conan Doyle
[A BBC RADIO 4 FULL-CAST DRAMATISATION]
 
For generations, the legend has been passed down. A satanic tale of a gigantic hell-hound, a devil incarnate who stalks the wastes of Dartmoor wreaking a bloody and terrible vengeance upon the heirs of the house of Baskerville.
While a country doctor brings the bizarre and seemingly unearthly circumstances surrounding the death of Sir Charles Baskerville to the attention of Sherlock Holmes, it is the beginning of one of the strangest cases of the great detective's career. Convinced by the arrival of an extraordinary warning that Sir Charles' heir, Henry, is in danger of his life, Holmes dispatches Dr. Watson to accompany the young man to the dark and somber house deep within the bleak Devon moor. With peril at every hand and a murderous escaped convict at large, the mystery deepens. Is the ancient legend true, or is the hideous creature merely a part of a sinister conspiracy whose origins are all too diabolically human?

Medieval Heroines in History and Legend
(24 lectures, 30 minutes/lecture)

Taught by Bonnie Wheeler
Southern Methodist University
Ph.D., Brown University

This course presents the lives, based on the latest scholarly interpretations, of four medieval women who still shimmer in the modern imagination: Heloise, the abbess and mistress of Abelard; the prophet Hildegard of Bingen; the legendary Queen Eleanor of Aquitaine; and the woman-warrior and saint, Joan of Arc.
In Medieval Heroines in History and Legend, Professor Bonnie Wheeler discusses these four remarkable women in the light of the present "golden age" of medieval scholarship. Almost daily, researchers are recovering lost information that corrects our picture of what had been a misunderstood era. As a result, we know more than ever about the roles women played in medieval life.
What did it mean to be a heroine in the medieval world? As the four subjects of this course make clear, it meant shaping and changing that world. In the monasteries and churches where people prayed, the universities where they wrote and thought, and even on the political map of Europe itself, these women made differences perceived not only in our time, but in theirs.
