It was a brief period of largely internal peace between the English Reformation and the battles between Protestants and Catholics and the battles between parliament and the monarchy that would engulf the seventeenth century. The Protestant/catholic divide was settled, for a time, by the Elizabethan Religious Settlement and parliament was still too weak to challenge royal absolutism. Britain was also well-off compared to the other nations of Europe. The Italian Renaissance had come to an end under the weight of foreign domination of the peninsula. France was embroiled in its own religious battles that would only be settled in 1598 with the Edict of Nantes. In part because of this, but also because the English had been expelled from their last outposts on the continent, the centuries long conflict between France and England was suspended during the Elizabethan era. The one great rival was Spain, which British conflicted with both in Europe and the Americas. While Britain lost some noted battles to the Spanish, the most important was won when the

Extractions: To: "Mark.S Harris (rsve60)" Greetings! Following is a list of SCA-related reading material I have gathered over the last few months. Many of them are new releases. They are adult AND children's titles this time. It is hoped that everyone reading this missive will be able to find something to amuse, enthrall or engage them while waiting for the pleasant spring weather to return. Enjoy! Aoife-yep, a librarian Dame Aoife Finn Barony of the Endless Hills Aethelmearc +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ Adults Subject: SC - FORTY-FOUR MESSAGES BEHIND!!! Some of you who have children might be interested in a book we checked out from the library. I have been reading a few pages a week to my children, and it is very interesting! The publisher has re-created scenes to look like medival ages and used these photographs as the backdrop for the page. The book seems to be part of an "I WAS THERE" series. It is called "KNIGHTS in Armor" there is no author. The ISBN numer is 1898304424 if you have some means of locating the book that way, as each book has a unique ISBN number. It is not intended to be an adults book, but I have enjoyed reading it to my kids. And learned a fair bit myself in the process. There was another book we checked out from the library called "CASTLE LIFE" that even had a Medieval recipe in it, but it seems we took it back to the library already. Happy cooking! - -Laurene Date: Wed, 11 Jul 2001 20:29:10 EDT From:

Extractions: LANGUAGE Changing concepts of style S. JAGADISAN and M.S. NAGARAJAN illuminate us with a survey of changing trends in the use of language over the last 400 years. EVERY artist employs a particular medium to communicate his experiences or view of life. For instance, the painter chooses colours, the musician sounds and the sculptor stone. The literary artist in a similar manner makes use of words and sounds to convey his impression of life. The purpose of a writer, whether he is a poet or dramatist or novelist or essayist, may be to record his response to life. It may be didactic, descriptive or critical. It is generally accepted that modern English literature was born in the second half of the 16th Century which was coeval with the Age of Elizabeth and the Renaissance. It was an age of inquiry, expansion and exploration. The spirit of adventure and experiment became manifest in the employment of language as well. Thanks to foreign influences, particularly Latin and Greek, on the English vocabulary, a large number of foreign words were absorbed in the English language. The Elizabethan writers exploited the native as well the foreign resources to lend variety and colour to their style. One tendency was to model style on that of Latin writing and writers.

Extractions: The oldest known cookbook is De re coquinaria (On Cooking), compiled some two thousand years ago by Gavius Apicius (b. 25 BC). Apicius was one of those Roman gourmets whose excesses led to the passage of "sumptuary laws" forbidding wasteful consumption. He was also a teacher of the culinary arts, and so successful that the poet statesman Seneca denounced him for luring youth away from the study of philosophy. Although Apicius's recorded tastes ran to such treats as camel heels and flamingo tongues, his cookbook also offers useful information about the eating habits of everyday Romans. One thing we learn about the wealthier ones is that they had little interest in the natural flavors. Seasonings were used abundantly in his recipes. Not only the staples of our day, but many exotic items like lovage, calamus root, hazelwort, rue, juniper berries, spikenard, pine nuts and fennel. Special favorites were silphium

Extractions: CHAPTER 34 THE LAST PLAYS: PART 5 THE TEMPEST 1.THE SOMERS INCIDENT For The Tempest I'm using another family library edition. This one was edited by A.W. Verity, M.A. Sometime Scholar of Trinity College, Cambridge (AWV), (Cambridge University Press, 1897). The edition has an Introduction, Notes, Appendix A on Gonzalo's Commonwealth, Appendix B on Was The Tempest written for the court-performance in 1613?, a section on The English Masque, a section on Metrical Tests (which help to fix the dates of Shakespeare's plays) a section 'Hints on Shakespeare's English' and a Glossary. I've also used the Web Renascence edition (text only). AWV divided his 26 page Introduction into 12 parts. Here is part 1 complete: DATES OF THE PUBLICATION AND COMPOSITION OF THE PLAY The Tempest was first published, so far as we know, in 1623, in the 1st Folio edition of Shakespeare's plays. It was written probably towards the end of 1610 or at the beginning of 1611. The style, metre and general tone of the play prove, independently of other evidence, that it belongs to the close of Shakespeare's dramatic career and forms one of the group of plays to which the title of "Romances" is commonly given. Most modern critics accept the date 1610 (late) or 1611 (early), and associate The Tempest with an incident which filled the thoughts of the nation at that time. This incident was the disaster which befell the fleet sent out to Virginia in 1609. The first permanent settlement of the English in America was made by the Virginia Company in 1608. (One of the chief promoters of this Company was Shakespeare's early patron, the Earl of Southampton, to whom Venus and Adonis and Lucrece were dedicated. Shakespeare therefore may have felt some personal interest in the Company). In May of the following year a fleet of nine vessels, bearing settlers and provisions for the new colony, was despatched under the command of Sir George Somers. On July 25 a storm overtook and scattered the fleet in mid-Atlantic, and Sir George Somer's vessel, the "Sea-Adventure," was driven ashore on the Bermudas. The crew were saved, remained on one of the islands for some months, built two new ships, and in May 1610 continued their voyage to Virginia. The other vessels (save one) had arrived there safely.
