Subject: On-line dictionary

Mau I ask you to post the following on HUMANIST?
Thanks by advance.
We are looking after an on-line version of the LONGMAN Dictionary of
contemporary English. Does it exist? If yes, where can we find it?
And how much cost it?
Thanks in anticipation.

Subject: Concordancing

Does anyone know where I can find a shareware or freeware MS-DOS tool
resembling WordCruncher or Micro-OCP in output? I need to demonstrate the
usefulness of this sort of thing in an English department that has theory
on the brain. Mixing search functions and file-building functions in a
word processor via macros does the job, but very slowly and awkwardly...

Subject: Keats Letters in electronic form

Does anyone know of the availability of an electronic edition of John
Keats' letters? Rollins' printed edition (2 vols, ?1957) seems to be the
standard one -- surely, by now, someone has got round to scanning or
typing it in? If you have or know of anyone who has, please get in touch
with EDWARDSD@OX.AC.UK....

Subject: Encryption tools in archives?

A colleague is looking for a shareware encryption program.
I know there are such things in the archives, but I'm not sure
where to look.

Subject: double jointed babies

Well, now we come to it. I am sorry for the
brevity of my previous question. The line comes
from a manuscript play from the mid-1650s in which
a very stupid countryman is being asked to take on
several commodities, including Jews' harps, and
"new fashioned double-jointed babies with springs
between their legs to make them go along." I
assume they are some sort of mechanical toy. Does
anyone know what they are? Thanks in advance.

Subject: Lists on Comparative Literature


I am new to this list, and am wondering if there are any lists
out there on Comparative Literature. I thought this would be a
good place to ask. I would appreciate any leads fellow HUMANISTS
may have on this.

Thanks in advance,
