liadethorneggeOh yes, I also scored a couple of books:
"Memoirs of a medieval woman: the Life and Times of Margery Kempe" by Louise Collis and "Holbein" by Hans Reinhardt.
Number one is about a moderately well off widow from Bishop's Lynne (Lia's hometown) around the turn of the 15th Century (Lia's time) and her adventures all over Europe. How awesome! Margery Kempe! I had no idea! And this one I picked up was not the only one in the shelves of Powell's either. No siree. There were others. Plus of course the original text dictated by Margery herself at the end of her life. Awesome.
And, well, Holbein needs no explanation I would presume.

Date: 2005-03-04 11:28 am (UTC)jo, jag köpte faktiskt en cd-bok på vanliga bokrea, en bok jag aldrig orkat ta itu med att läsa även om den kanske är bra? nämnligen Maja Hagermans, spåren av kungens män, för 98:-. tänkte att det kunde vara trevlig lyssning när man sitter och stickar i sängen! hitills har den väl haft en del intressanta små tankespår men känns väldigt pratig... eva, du som är proffs på historia, är den så bra som jag hört sägas att den ska vara? själv är jag inte jätteimponerad efter en halv skiva.
själv tänkte jag shoppa loss i en av chicagos äldsta antikvariat. hoppas bara de har öppet under påskhelgen, risken är väl att det är stängt :(
