Re: [Solo History] A History of the Papacy, Vol III by Mandell Creighton - loa

Thanks, Pattymarie!

RB is a fascinating character, I agree. A louche past seems likely.

I think Shakespeare might have approved of this Trinculo in "The Tempest," 2010.

I agree, Pattymarie, and I love your word louche!

Actually, I love the whole paragraph you wrote.

Thanks!

The maxim, “divide and conquer” was first ascribed to Philip II of Macedon.

My best,

Re: [Solo History] The Renaissance and Reformation by Emmeline Tanner-mas

Yes, but only with the help of Wikipedia and the dynastic charts at the back of my paper copy of the book.

Thanks!

Hi Barbara,

Section 19 is PL OK.

It seemed fine and I was very happy to get a glimpse of Lord Sandwich, having recently read his biography. Footnotes were helpful, too.
