This kind of question is becoming more common on this list, especially as the end of term approaches. I don't want to discourage anyone from answering more directly, but I would like to make the following general remark (which also now appears on the Mantovano subscription pages): Don't send messages like "I am writing a paper for school on _____________________. Any and all thoughts are appreciated." This kind of query is far too broad, and what's more, it's fundamentally lazy. The proper answer to that question is "Have you been to the library yet? I've heard they have some good books there." In other words, we are not going to write your paper for you. We can, though, help you sharpen your own ideas if you tell us first (a) what YOU think about the topic, and (b) what books on the subject you've already looked at. ----------------------------------------------------------------------- David Wilson-Okamura http://www.virgil.org/chaucer [EMAIL PROTECTED] Chaucer: an annotated guide to online resources ----------------------------------------------------------------------- ----------------------------------------------------------------------- To leave the Mantovano mailing list at any time, do NOT hit reply.
