Subject: Dutch American memoirs and autobiographies

For a writing project, I would be interested in learning about any first-hand
autobiographies, memoirs, or collection of letters of Dutch Americans.
Either in Dutch or in English. I have consulted Linda Doezema's
_Dutch Americans_.

Subject: classic electronic fonts?

There are many electronic typefaces on the market that adapt some of the
characteristics of old-fashioned styles, but most of these are rough
approximations, and the emphasis is on display faces. Can anyone recommend
a source for electronic versions (especially compatible with WordPerfect)
of early modern book faces such as Jenson, Aldine Roman, Garamont, Caslon,
or Baskerville, complete with the now-obsolete medial _s_and associated
ligatures?

I would be very grateful if someone could help me to find where Roland Barthes
wrote: "La seule donnee c'est la facon de prendre". Thank you.
in any case.

Subject: *Euphues and his England*

I am doing a little work on *Euphues and his England* at the moment and
wondered if there was a more recent text than the 1964 reprint of Croll and
Clemens. Is anyone aware of a new edition in progress?
Thanks,
