89. The Wondering Minstrels -- Frequently Asked Questions The Wondering Minstrels is a poetryby-email service run by Abraham Thomas Also, if you have any specific questions, write in and we ll do our best to http://www.cs.rice.edu/~ssiyer/minstrels/faq.html

Minstrels FAQ Version 2.0 FAQ created 09 Feb 2000 This version 03 Oct 2003: almost every answer revised :) 1. Errm, what exactly is the Wondering Minstrels? The Wondering Minstrels is a poetry-by-email service run by Abraham Thomas and Martin DeMello, with an accompanying archive website created and maintained by Sitaram Iyer. Martin and Thomas (who prefers using his second name) send a poem a day, (almost) every day, to everyone on the Minstrels mailing list. Along with the poems we send personal commentaries, critical analyses, poet biographies, historical asides, trivia, links - basically, anything that catches our fancy. Sitaram archives these poems on the Minstrels website, which also offers options for reader comments and feedback, user-defined poem 'collections', links to random poems, and various clever sort and search options. You can visit the archive at http://www.cs.rice.edu/~ssiyer/minstrels/ 2. Where did you get the name? "A Wandering Minstrel I A thing of shreds and patches Of ballads, songs and snatches And dreamy lullaby." W. S. Gilbert, 'The Mikado' Apart from being a tip of the hat to one of our favourite poets (in one of his best snatches of verse), the pun on 'wondering-wandering' is meant to evoke a sense of the numinous - truly great poetry takes you on a journey of revelation and wonder, emotion and insight. 3.

Michael Laplace-Sinatra The facsimile reprints published by Woodstock Books over the last few years have given modern scholars a chance to read various pieces from the Romantic period in their original format, as well as to put them in perspective with other works considered important enough to deserve a modern edition. The two recent volumes published in the series certainly fulfil the ambition of the series, and reward any reader for their detailed perusal. Responding to a letter from William Taylor in which the publication of an annual anthology based on the French and German Almanacks was discussed, Robert Southey wrote on December 3, 1798: "I think of speedily editing such a volume." And the result was the first volume of the
