If that's crazy, I need to be in a padded cell over my real book purchases. Tom Send a noteboard - 28/08/2014 03:55:36 PM

In the past 30 days:

From amazon.de:

Das Fließende Licht der Gottheit by Mechthild von Magdeburg (76 EUR)
Das Nibelungenlied und die Klage (148 EUR)
Prosalancelot I-V - 3 in 5 Bänden (komplett) (248 EUR)
Die Büchse der Pandora: Geschichte des Ersten Weltkriegs, by Jörn Leonard (38 EUR)

From amazon.fr:

Libertins du XVIIe siècle, tome 1 (63.50 EUR)
Libertins du XVIIe siècle, tome 2 (71 EUR)
Romanciers libertins du XVIIIe siècle, tome I (60.50 EUR)
Romanciers libertins du XVIIIe siècle, tome II (66 EUR)
Anthologie by Eustache Deschamps (14.60 EUR)

That's 785.60 euro in total.

Then there was a small Folio Society order as they just issued new books:

The World of Late Antiquity by Peter Brown ($59.95)
Paris in the Middle Ages by Simone Roux ($67.95)
Richard III: England's Black Legend by Desmond Seward ($59.95)

Of course, most months aren't this busy. After September, when 5 books on preorder come out, I don't see any purchases through January.




Political correctness is the pettiest form of casuistry.

ἡ δὲ κἀκ τριῶν τρυπημάτων ἐργαζομένη ἐνεκάλει τῇ φύσει, δυσφορουμένη, ὅτι δὴ μὴ καὶ τοὺς τιτθοὺς αὐτῇ εὐρύτερον ἢ νῦν εἰσι τρυπώη, ὅπως καὶ ἄλλην ἐνταῦθα μίξιν ἐπιτεχνᾶσθαι δυνατὴ εἴη. – Procopius

Ummaka qinnassa nīk!
