<p>A dead man in a famous museum</p><p>A series of cryptic clues</p><p>A mystery leading to the greatest secret in history</p><p>(Well, until the next one)</p><p><br></p><p>These are the elements that make up Dan Brown’s The Da Vinci Code, a chunky little thriller following Harvard professor Robert Langdon across a danger-filled Paris. It’s a potboiler, a fantasy, and a Grail-quest. It’s a tissue of pseudo-history and lies. It’s adream that could only have been evoked in the early-Twenty-First Century. It’s also the topic of this month’s episode of TheProjectionist’s Lending Library. </p><p><br></p><p>With special guest Stephanie Parker</p><p><br></p><p>Music: Marie Magdeleine </p>

05.03: Robin Hood and ROBIN HOOD: PRINCE OF THIEVES (Reynolds, 1991)
<p>Lithe and listen, gentlefolk! The year is 1193, or thereabouts,anyway sometime in the reign of “Good King Richard” (theLionheart, good for some and not so good for others). The place is merrie olde England—more precisely, Nottingham and its environs, under an enormous, ancient tree. The subject: Robin of Locksley, Robin o’ the hood himself. You know the basic story—robs from the rich, gives to the poor. It’s a story that’s been told many times and in many ways, a story that’s designed to give its poor listeners comfort in difficult times. Well, I don’t know about you but it sure seems like times are difficult, so perhaps we’re ready for another look at the old bandit. He might still have something to offer.</p><p><br /></p><p>The time: now. The place: here. The subject: Robin Hood: Prince of Thieves. The podcast: The Projectionist’s Lending Library. Pull on your tights, get out your longbow—we’re going adventuring.</p><p><br /></p><p>For more on the Robin Hood tradition, check out <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7Vb5LgsTYk4" target="_blank" rel="ugc noopener noreferrer">The Rest is History.</a></p><p>Music: <a href="https://archive.org/details/gems-from-robin-hood" target="_blank" rel="ugc noopener noreferrer">Gems from "Robin Hood." </a> Used under a Creative Commons License: <a href="https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/4.0/" rel="ugc noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/4.0/</a></p><p><br /></p>
