Monda" <monda@seattleu.edu> Subject: Re: The Wild Man in Literature I have a colleague who has written a study of the Wild Man in literature, from the Middle Ages to the 20th century. Would any of the members have an idea of where he might submit it for publication? He sent it to one publisher who said it was being read when, in fact, it was lying under a stack somewhere. So he lost ten months. O tempora! O mores! Please reply to me. Joseph B.

A colleague of mine is doing research on the philosophical, critical, and esthetical works of Benedetto Croce. An electronic version of these texts would be of great value to her. Does anyone of the HUMANIST members know whether these works are available in machine readable form?

However, since I will not be able to attend, I was wondering if any of the papers will be available in electronic form. If enough people are interested, perhaps someone could post to this list after the conference, where papers would be found, individually, or as a group. Thanks. Lucia.

Hesla" <ILADHH@EMUVM1> Subject: HOKUSAI PRINT Many thanks to anyone who can help me locate a print or book illustration by the Japanese artist Hokusai. The design shows a man whose eyeballs are at the end of stalks protruding from the man's head. I need the name of the picture (if there is one), the title of the book where it is found, and the year of publication. DAVID H.

Preferably, the corpus would represent text from vary- ing sources, similar to the Brown corpus in English, usinfg currrent standard Italian. However, any leads to any type of corpus in Italian would be welcome. Many thanks.

I'm trying to locate a quote supposedly made by Karl Marx, about war as the locomotive of history.

I have a Mac Classic (2 MB RAM) and use Microsoft Word. A few days ago I received a brochure for the _American Heritage Dictionary_, which sounded fine, but can anyone speak from experience? Is it perhaps best to stick to the printed kind? Michel Chaouli
