>> through the Ages" by Dr. Hiram Woodward, Curator Emeritus, Asian Art,
>> Walters Art Museum. This year's TLC theme is "Art History and TLC
>> Studies." Dr. Woodward's talk will be designed for a general

>> be reflections on mythical and non-mythical elements in texts  
>> concerning
>> Sukhothai: legend and projection in the early Bangkok period; the
>> discovery and reading of the Sukhothai inscriptions; the  
>> integration of
>> Sukhothai into the history of Siam; the debate over the

>> Historians.
>> Because of the recent deaths of our colleagues in Art History and the
