Pope publications mix serious analysis with a lot of mocking — and individual faculty members are frequently the target.

 Running on Empty
Annie and Arthur Pope face the painful choice of keeping their family together and preventing Danny from realizing the future of his dreams, just like their dreams remained unfulfilled, or letting him surface from their underground world.
Arthur runs the family in an autocratic manner, making all of the decisions, training his sons how to live anonymously (even remembering to stay home the day of the school picture), and maintaining a fortress mentality suspicious of all outside contact.
The drama of this work is expressed through the painful choice faced by the Popes: do they stick together at all costs, and continue a life of deception and flight from the authorities, or do they break up so that their sons can have a future, and live freely in open society.

Arthur and Annie Pope were both liberal rebels in the 1960s, and were responsible for blowing up a napalm lab in 1971 to protest the Vietnam War.
Both Arthur and Annie realize the implications of what they did, and they are prepared to deal with the consequences of such action.
This movie presents us with a fascinating moral choice: As parents, Arthur and Annie must choose between being with their son but limiting his potential, or possibly never seeing him again and allowing him to reach that potential.

Ackerman and Pope, increasingly convinced of the importance of the arts of Persia, were instrumental in preparing the famed Persian Art Exhibition at Burlington House in London in 1931, which coincided with the 2nd International Congress of Iranian Art and Archeology.
Reactions to these activities, which were largely carried on by Pope, damaged the reputations of both, particularly as some of the objects sold by them were later discovered to be very clever forgeries.
In 1964 she accompanied Pope on a State Visit to Persia, her first, at which time they were asked to revive the Asia Institute in Shiraz.

I was six when he was elected the Pope, but I can still remember first the disbelief and then the euphoria that after four and a half centuries of Italian pontiffs the cardinals have chosen an outsider, and not just any outsider but one of ours.
When he came back in 1983, during the dark winter of our history, with the opposition suppressed and the country suffocated by the Martial Law and the dreary rule of the colonels, he made us realize that there was future.
The future Pope, who was then the Archbishop of Krakow, loved being with young people and maintained special interest in cultivating the future intelligencia.

 East Valley Tribune | Daily Arizona news for Chandler, Gilbert, Tempe, Mesa, Scottsdale
At the behest of the Pope himself, Arthur must lead his men across Hadrian’s Wall into the untamed north to rescue a prominent Roman family before the settlers fall under the sword of the invading Saxons, led by a pitiless proto-fascist brute named Cerdic (Stellan Skarsgard of "Ronin").
Inevitably, Arthur gets in touch with his inner Briton and swears to defend the island against the Saxons, forcing his knights to face a shopworn dilemma of their own: Take the easy road out, or stay and fight.
Their idea of realism is to have one of Arthur’s knights boast about the size of his genitals, using a very modern-sounding metaphor.

During 1964 while in Isfahan with his former student Jay Gluck, Pope spoke of reviving his original plan to make the Survey a true record of Persian art from the earliest time to the present, and to add a volume on contemporary folk arts and art crafts.
Pope’s death in 1969 caused suspension of the project.

The two painters' works were parallel in use of subdued, mellow colors and in their depiction of California landscapes.
For instance, Mathews' "California Landscape" hangs in the Metropolitan Museum of Art, and Pope's "Wisdom Crowning Literature," which hangs in the Greene Library (now called the African American Museum and Library at Oakland), cleverly casts Mount Tamalpais as Mount Parnassus in her classical painting of toga'd figures.
For instance, although Pope had completed two of her three planned paintings, the board would not accept them until the third was produced -- because she was about to be married, and the board believed she might be overwhelmed by marital duties and never complete the third.

 My Thesis
This clearly implies that Arthur died in the Battle of Mount Badon, which of course is not the case, or rather is never implied in any of the works studied for the thesis.
King Arthur saw these two blows and was quite aware that it was the emperor; so he spurred on his horse towards him and with his bright and keenly sharp sword he struck the emperor on his helmet with all his strength.
Arthur, though dead and buried, is expected to return miraculously at a later date, effecting a human resurrection in line with the Second Coming.
