A Blending of the Past and Present       

Because I am now getting materials for my files from a variety of sources in 
addition to the Rialto (rec.org.sca), including articles sent to me by email
and several mail lists, I have decided to rename my files, StefanÕs
Florilegium.

Florilegium - (literally, "a gathering of flowers").  In medieval times, 
Florilegia were collections of choice tidbits (from Ovid, Aristotle, various 
popes, church scholars, etc) arranged topically. Typically, a florilegium is 
huge, encyclopedic, and contains only choice selections from particular
works.

Anyone interested in these files is encouraged to request a copy of my
complete
filelist.  I can print these files or put them on a disk for you.

Those of you who have World-Wide-Web (WWW) access can get these files at:
http://www.pbm.com/~lindahl/rialto/rialto.html, although it may be a week
or two before the newest files are on-line.

While I have highlighted this file before, I wish to mention it again because

think it is a good guideline for whether our incoming baron/essÕ past and
future
actions meet our expectations.
