Chaucer Hath Not A Class

talkstowolvesFor this next semester, I had a ridiculously hard (yet pleasing!) schedule lined up:
M/W 12:00-13:15 Shakespeare: Earlier Work
M/W 13:30-14:45 Chaucer
M/W 17:30-18:45 Folkore
Alas, the Chaucer class has been cancelled! This is most displeasing. I need to take another pre-1800's class, but there's nothing else available fitting that description on M/W.
(Each semester, I try to schedule all my classes on the same two days. This minimizes the amount of gas I must expend driving to university each week, opens up my schedule in terms of a part-time job, and also makes my car available more often to my husband. We're a single-car household at the moment.)
Send hope my way that I might be able to scare up a directed research, potentially on Victorian literature!* Please?
Soon, I should make those posts looking back on my first year of graduate school and discussing my shift of interest to Victorian studies.
* I know that Victorian literature also does not fit the description of "pre-1800," but it's my specialization! So it'd count as an elective and I could hopefully finish up my pre-1800 requirement in the Spring. There are no other classes available on M/W that would make a useful elective, either.
