Subject: The Bibliography of American Imprints to 1901

The _Bibliography of American Imprints to 1901_ (Saur), in 92 volumes,
is essentially based on the RLIN database and the records of the
American Antiquarian Society, which are also in RLIN. As a subscriber
to RLIN we are wondering what the research benefits are which could not
be met by the electronic database. We would appreciate any comments or
views from those considering the same issues.

Subject: Aphra Behn text to song by Allen Dwight Sapp

Greetings:
I would appreciate some assistance from any and all
Aphra Behn scholars! I am trying to identify the source of a
text to a song written as incidental music to a Behn play by the
composer Allen Dwight Sapp. Please contact me directly if you
would like to give it a try.

Thanks,

Subject: Calendars

I'm looking for a description of calendars from Asia (Chinese,
Japanese, Vietnamese, etc.) : the way they work, how do they
deal with the .2422 of the 365.2422 days of the year, lunar
cycles and so on. Not so much with the ritual, sociological,
magical aspects but the "mechanical" side.
Any references ? Thanks in advance.
Marc

Subject: Antiquities Images

I am working with a faculty member who is creating a software package on ancien
t greek and roman sites. This is very different from Perseus.

Anyway, we are trying to locate several items and need some pointers please.

1. name and address of someone/team/univeristy who has created a CAD rend
ering of the acropolis.

2. names, etc of individuals who have already digitized images which they
are willing to share -- we are very aware of copyright issues.

Thanks for any help you can offer.

Subject: gender and semantics

I am working on personification in a Latin text, and as a result need
to become familiar with current arguments about the relation
between grammatical gender and semantic structures. I know about
Greville Corbett's _Gender_ (1991) but am not a linguist & so am
feeling the need for a range of expert advice.

Thanks in advance.
