Re: [Group] Great Events in the History of North and South America, by Charles Goodrich - lt

Can I have 81, i.e West Indies? Sure thing! Thanks, and happy reading! I've just recorded my section and will submit it soon. Quite interesting! One question, the text proper of this section (and presumably all the others) is preceded by short list of contents-type fragment. Do you want me to keep ...

The Battle of Dorking (the novella that spawned the future-war genre)

Today I did what I often do, i.e I started browsing Wikipedia. On today's Main Page I clicked on the https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Invasion_literature link, which describes a sub-genre of fiction that was thriving towards the end of XIX century, when the continental Europe apparently lived in fear o...

Re: ( solo) Argonauts of the Western Pacific by Bronisław Malinowski

The first (although really the third) chapter is in. Got 57 minutes to spare? :) Fortunately, it is very helpfully divided into subchapters, which should make PLing easier. The reason why I'm starting with this one is because I originally wanted to contribute it to the Non-fiction collection, but th...

Re: ( solo) Argonauts of the Western Pacific by Bronisław Malinowski

OK - all set up as a work in progress I think read the preface and forward as section 0 and the introduction as 01 I the filenames should certainly have the anglicised spelling, I'l investigate whether we can use the Polish spelling as an alternative name and thus search for it - think it would be ...

Re: ( solo) Argonauts of the Western Pacific by Bronisław Malinowski

I tried recording this on Legamus 10 years ago, but I eventually abandoned the project, nibbled in random places and thus hard to salvage, so here's a new effort. I already have one section ready, but I'm planning to move slowly for the time being as I still have my previous solo to finish... and th...

Re: Need help please with copyright status in Poland

Hello from Poland :) The most important thing to know when it comes to copyright in any EU country is the author's death date. If the author died at least 70 years ago, the book is in the public domain for the European Union. If you're searching for a Polish book to read and record, I suggest lookin...

We're out of short sections :P The next one is going to be looong, then the next one just plain old long, and then next after that is going to be looooong :P (at least looking at the number of pages)
