How cool - and how hi-tech! Well done.
Thanks! Yes, I feel quite pleased with myself. The library has odd hours for the summer sessions, and the computer lab seems to not be open at all right now... luckily, SHeila fixed up my little laptop like a dream, made it safe as can be, and that's what I'm using. Only drawbacks: battery life, and no way to print.
< I never thought (I was 19, what did I know about theatre!) it could be adequately staged! >
Why not?
Too many long, long, cleverly-crafted speeches. As soon as I gt the chance I'm going to stop by Gray's Used Books and see if I can get a copy. Highly cool to have a former English professor running the only used book store in town! hee
< I don't know the name of the era as "Restoration," but that's because I'm not a citizen of the Commonwealth >
What do Americans call it? Isn't "Restoration" what they called it themselves? (I ask out of ignorance... I always assumed it was.)
Well... confessing I just don't remember what the era was called. Clearly it did not make an impact on me at the time, so the term slipped my memory. "Restoration" would not have meant much to me then, as I knew very little English history... was at the time obsessed with prehistory, and with American colonial-era history (still am, but I"ve absorbed a lot of that and now can branch out!). I'll let you know, when I find out. If the book I get was printed in America, well... there you go, it'll have the American term!

Wow, and wow. You <i>did</i> make a major trip out, there! Good for you times ten!
How did it go? Did you lose energy partway through it? Or are you healing past the quick-onset-exhaustion phase?
