Unfortunately not so many are connected to the Muse in Denmark but luckily I found out recently that a library in Aarhus is, so I have ordered copies from there. I have wondered about Miltons use of the Bible: he often uses the same quotations in different manners. Also he starts over agian on the same subject several times but often it is difficult to compare, which made me think it would be much easier if the text was available as a computertext. As far as I know it is not. But perhaps you know better? I have been using a cd-rom with the whole Bible in original language which is tagged so you can look up words immediately. I hope someone has thougt of making De Doctrina Christiana available in the same mode.

Entitled 'Reading is Bad for your Health', it is available at http://www.historytoday.com/today/0398/feature/index.stm It is highly amusing and has lovely illustrations with excellent captions! No further comment needed. Chris Baggs, DILSUniversity of Wales, Aberystwyth The lecture begins with Milton and makes reference to his blaming his blindness on reading too much. Roy Flannagan
