ASHEBORO – In the HBO series Game of
Thrones, viewers see vestiges of medieval history: knights in shining armor
defending their ladies’ honor, jousts and tournaments, and courtly intrigue.
Join UNC-Greensboro Associate
History Professor Richard Barton at 6 p.m. Thursday, April 14, at the Asheboro
Public Library, for a grounding in the nature of power for those who play the
game of thrones. Barton’s research interest is the structure and nature of
power in medieval France, which he ties in with events in the fictional
kingdoms of the popular series.
Barton’s talk, sponsored by the Friends
of the Library, is free and the public is invited.
The library is located at 201 Worth Street. For further
information, call 336-318-6803.
