<<< This may confuse the matter when one says black currants as there  
are black current that are not Zantes but when it says Raisens of  
Corinth, it is zante raisens

2) Raisins of Corinth, also called Black Currants or Zante Currants.

This definitely has me confused again.  When we discussed this in the  
past few months I thought I had this figured out, and have edited  
this new Florilegium file (not uploaded to the website yet).

currants-msg      (22K)  9/ 3/08    Medieval currants. Red or black  
currants,
                                        not "raisins of Corinth".

So "raisins of Corinth" are Zante raisins, but they are *not* black  
currants, right?
