ANST - Stefan's article for Novemb

[Mark Harris]

Greetings,

Here is a copy of my article for November. Please remember that if you
do publish it, I would like notification by email. While I do not require
a copy of the newsletter that it is printed in, it is appreciated. I
like to know when it is published, so I know whether it is worthwhile
to continue with this monthly article.

I have found that some people do not see the double quotes around 
some of the article titles in the right-hand column. And yes, the 
article list portion should be in two columns, filename on the left 
and description on the right. Using a non-proportional font such as 
courier may help.

If you or perhaps your local newsletter editor would like to be added
to the list of people I send a copy of this to by email, please
contact me by email.

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 by email. I can send this filelist or any of these files by email or
by copying them to a computer diskette if you donÕt have WWW access.

Those of you who have World-Wide-Web (WWW) access can get these files at:
http://www.pbm.com/~lindahl/rialto/rialto.html.
