I'm planning to attend and would be happy to teach a couple of classes.
What I'd really like is to get some idea of what folks would like to see
taught. Does anyone have anything that they'd particularly like to see a
class about?
[I asked this question awhile back and was really surprised that there
wasn't much discussion of the issue. I'd never known heralds to be silent
types...]
Classes I've already written and would be easy to teach (don't require much
brush-up) include:
Period Name Construction
- an overview of basic construction types for a number of languages
Irish Names
- a thorough overview of Gaelic names in Ireland throughout our period
Constructing SCA Household Names Using Irish Gaelic Family and Clan Name
Models
- the title basically says it all
I've also got a couple that I need to brush up the handouts for, but could
easily do that. These are:
Naming Practices in 16th Century Gloucestershire
Building a Local Library
Depending on the topic, I could put together a different class if there's a
particular interest.
I've taught out some of these in Ansteorra in the last year or so, so I
don't know if there's an interest in having them taught again. What do
folks think?
