Conan the Barbarian: The Musical

June 30, 2010 · Posted in Coolness, Medievalism, Reading, SF/Fantasy 

As long time readers know, I’ve got a fondness for the original Robert E. Howard Conan stories. I discuss reading the Lancier paperbacks in my technoliteracy autobiography, titled “On the Dangers of Reading Conan Stories and Playing Computer Games; or, The Making of a Technorhetorician: A Technological Literacy Collage,” I mention Conan in a discussion of why medievalists should embrace popular culture such as sword and sorcery fantasy, and in the post “Barbarian Chic” I talk about a review of the recent rereleases of Howard’s original Conan stories and my own 2004 MLA paper in which Conan played a featured role. You can find other references to Robert E. Howard and his most famous creation scattered here and there in other posts as well.

Having gotten all that out of the way, it is with much pleasure I share with you Conan the Barbarian: The Musical: You need to a flashplayer enabled browser to view this YouTube video
