Subject: advanced programming for the Humanities

I am going to be teaching a course next fall semester entitled "Advanced
Programming for the Humanities" and am looking for a suitable text. I
would appreciate suggestions. Some background: the course will use
Pascal as the programming language and the students will have already
had one semester of Pascal using Nancy Ide's text "Pascal for the
Humanities", or the equivalent thereof. I would like to cover stacks,
queues, graphs, binary trees, and all the major sorting and searching
algorithms with a minimum of math and a maximum of examples pertaining
to the Humanities. Please post responses directly to Humanist, not to
me personally. Thanks to all in advance.

Subject: Women and Religion

I have been asked to assess the scope and nature of available resources
on the networks that have specific relevance to the very broad area of
research often referred to as "Women and Religion" (please do not ask me
to define this field!).

If anyone knows of existing archives, filelists, lists, etc., on the
academic networks specific to this field please tell me about them
through HUMANIST.

Thank you,

The announcement of Collate 1.0 for collation of large manuscript
traditions prompts me to ask what programs are available and recommended
by Humanists for users of MS-DOS computers.

Are there any special interest groups, within or outside HUMANIST, that
are interested in the application of computers to History or American
History?

Subject: National Association of Scholars

There is a controversy on this campus centered on a talk given by a group
of faculty members belonging to an organization called the "National
Association of Scholars" (NAS). According to press reports, this
organization has about 2000 members nationwide; apparently they are
organized into "chapters" on each campus. The members are dedicated,
as far as I can tell, to defending Western Civ in the curriculum against
an extreme form of multiculturalism. Other groups on campus have taken
strong exception to the NAS, and an unfortunate incident has begun to
polarize the campus. I feel somewhat ignorant about the whole incident,
for I have never heard of the NAS, nor am I familiar with its aims. I'm
afraid that I couldn't get an "objective" opinion around here about the
group, because everyone is taking sides. Without wishing to inflame
passions too high, I wonder if anyone can give me some more information
about the NAS, its history, its goals, its membership. If this topic is
too inflammatory for the list, please e-mail me directly.

Subject: On-Line Bible

Quite some time ago I made a note to myself to look into
the On-Line Bible, $30, mentioned I think on Huamnist.

Will someone send me a quick go/nogo (what faith I have in
you all)?
