Podlecture 3 is about Machaut as a multimedia artist.

Machaut (Prelims) lecture 2

This is the second podlecture and notes for my Machaut Course for Prelims Special Topics at Oxford.

This page hosts the audio for the first of six Machaut ‘podlectures’ for Prelims (1st year exams) at Oxford, originally delivered in this form in 2020/2021 because of restrictions caused by the COVID-19 pandemic, but of ongoing relevance to later iterations of this course. It also gives links to some further reading and things mentioned in the audio. Listening to the audio and following the tasks it mentions should take at least an hour for each podlecture.
