[Loch-Ruadh] Making Fun in the Middle Ages...

[STEVE K ROURKE]

In the Middle Ages, satire took the form of ribald drinking songs, grotesque
carvings, and irreverent parodies of those in authority...most notably, the
Church. This week, check out Making Fun in the Middle Ages...
... and, In The News, a new exhibit of late medieval and Renaissance
masterworks are on view at the Montreal Museum of Fine Art...while an
infusion of British pounds is planned to help put Sherwood Forest back on
the map...
...also, check out a new advertiser who joins New York Carver this
week...with three galleries of genuine medieval carvings for sale from
respected London dealer, Richard Wiseman...
