Subject: Mysterious Italian bibliographical references
Dear colleagues:
Are there any residents of Italy who would be willing to
trade a little bibliographical work? I and a friend who
also works in medieval/renaissance Italian have been sharing
hard-to-find references and believe we have reached the point
where we can only get them from Italy.
Each of us has a large University library from which to work
here, and is unable to get to Europe soon (e.g., next year or
so). Is there someone there with a similar situation? We'll
happily locate US articles if you could do the same for some
Italian ones.

Subject: directory of humanities computing projects
Dear editors,
next October I will give a lecture, at Venice University, about th
e most important humanities computing projects all over the world. As I wrote t
he thing, it seems a huge task; actually the thing is a survey of interesting p
rojects outside italian boundaries.
I remember that someone asked, some time ago, on Humanist for data about th
is matter, in order to compile a sort of directory of humanities computing proj
ects? Am I right? Could you help me some way? (I already frequently go trough t
he Hum. Comp. Yearbook, the CTI survey, and some other books; but forget, pleas
e, my "other books" if you have any advice about interesting readings).
Thank you.
Maurizio

Subject: Perseus database near Venice, Italy?
It's funny that I've got to resort to Canada to get in touch with
people so close by, but so it goes!
I would like to know if there's any institution in Veneto (the region where
Venice is) where I can have a look at Perseus at work. I might also
consider to take a trip to Bologna or Milan if that's the only possibility.
Gente, fatemi un fischio! (Give me a shout, folks!)
Saluti,
Marco Simionato

Subject: Icelandic Sagas on Film?
I was told by an Icelander while I was in Norway a year
or so ago that some of the Norse sagas had been made into
films in Iceland, and that some of them were actually spoken
in the original--which, he asserted, is as intelligible
to an Icelander as Shakespeare is to a Modern English speaker.
Does anyone know anything about such films, or where
they might be found? They'd make a wonderful addition
to a class I'm planning for Fall.
My Thanks!
