Thème agrégation/M2 starting Wednesday

I'll explain all this in class of course, but written info is good.
In week two (26th January and the following days) I have been invited to Osnabrück in Germany to talk about "Uses of British Popular Song during the First World War". And they are paying for travel, meals etc, so obviously this is an offer I can't refuse! I had intended to try to replace this class on the day before, the Tuesday, but the agrégation students have classes all day. So there is no "thème" class in week two. For the agrégation people, this class will be made up some time in the New Year. For the M2 people, note that you must be with us for the first six classes (that is to say, including the class on 7th November). M2 students who wish to may continue to come to classes after the 7th November, but are not obliged to do so. The passages we translate generally rotate on a three-year programme, so even if you are thinking of preparing the agrégation next year, you won't be being asked to work twice on the same material. See you all on Wednesday.
