Philosophy (Borrowed*)
What is "real"? If this user* exists, (and should we not concede the user does in fact, exist, as we are reading this page) then is said user "real"? Does existence validate reality? Are we real? Are we really reading this user's page? Does the fact that the user is listed in a great variety of areas on Wikipedia increase the user's worth? Does edit count equal validity? If a user has no edits, does it mean the user doesn't exist? What really exists? What is reality? Can anything be "known" with certainty? Best wiki-advice: Follow the example, nothing original here, except I did find my own tree falling. On the other hand, NOR dictates everything has been said before, so all philosophy is borrowed, discussion lame.

Novgorod Chronicle

Въ лѣто 6635 [1127]. Заложи церковь камяну святого Иоанна Всѣволодъ Новѣгородѣ, на Петрятинѣ дворѣ, въ имя сына своего. Въ то же лѣто паде метыль густъ по земли и по водѣ и по хоромомъ, по 2 нощи, а по 4 дни. Томь же лѣтѣ обложи трьпезницю камяну Антонъ игуменъ Новегородѣ. Томь же лѣтѣ вода бяше велика въ Волховѣ, а снѣгъ лежа до Яковля дни; а на осень уби 1. морозъ вьрьшь всю и озимицѣ; и бы голодъ и цересъ зиму, 2. ръжи осминка /л.12./ по полугривнѣ

Въ лѣто 6669 [1161]. Уладися Ростислав съ Андрѣемь о Новъгородъ, и вывѣдоста Мьстислава, Гюргевъ вънукъ, седевъшю ему годъ до года без недѣлѣ, а Святослава въвѣдоша опять на всѣи воли его, септября въ 28. Тъгда же отяшя посадницьство у Нѣжате, а Заха/л.32./рии даша. Томь же лѣтѣ стоя всѣ лѣто ведромь и пригорѣ всѣ 4. жито, а на осѣнь уби всю 3. ярь 1. морозъ. Еще же, за грѣхы наша, не то зло оставися, нъ пакы на зиму ста вся зима тепломь и дъжгемь, и громъ бысть; и купляхомъ кадку малую по 7 кунъ. О, велика скърбь бяше въ людьхъ и нужа.

Въ лѣто 6739 [1231]. Загорѣся от Матѣева двора от Вышковиця, и погорѣ вьсь коньць Славьньскыи оли и до конця Хълма, мимо святого Илию; нъ ублюде богъ святыхъ церквъ; нъ толми бяше лютъ пожаръ, яко по водѣ огнь горяше, ходя чрѣсъ Вълхово, всѣмъ людьмъ зрящимъ, и головъ нѣколико истопѣ въ Волховѣ. Того же лѣта откры богъ милосердие свое на нас грѣшныхъ, створи милость свою въскорѣ: прибѣгоша 6. Нѣмьци и-замория съ 4. житомь и 5. мукою...

В лЂто 6954 6 [1446]. Отпусти цесарь Махмет князя великого Василья на Рускую землю и взя на немъ окупа двЂстЂ тысяць рублевъ, а иное богъ вЂсть да онЂ. Того же лЂта начаша людие денгЂ хулити серебряныя, даже и всЂ новгородци другъ на друга смотря, и бысть межи ими голка и мятежь и нелюбовь; и посадник и тысячкыи и весь Новъгород уста... Того же лЂта, генваря въ 3, бысть облакъ тученосенъ и з дожгемъ, и паде вкупЂ 7. пшеница и 2. ръжи и 4. жито на полЂ и на лЂсЂ от града за 5 верстъ, вдале от Волховца и до МьстЂ рЂкЂ на 15 верстъ...

I just finished rewriting the article and wanted to let you know that any additions or corrections would be greatly appreciated... • Freechild   'sup?   19:32, 16 February 2008 (UTC)
 * I think a lot of the information on Jones' article, as well as the other articles in Category:Piney Woods Country Life School, could be "safely" repeated in the main article - but I'm out of energy to write more on that topic right now. Thanks for the feedback. • Freechild   'sup?   05:28, 17 February 2008 (UTC)

Richard the Marshal (image attributed to William)
Hi, I didn't upload that image. I used to upload a lot of manuscript images, but tended to do whole pages rather than details. That said, I do own Four Gothic Kings and if Hallam misidentified the figure in this image, that's probably the source of the confusion. Dsmdgold (talk) 16:03, 15 July 2019 (UTC)


 * Hi, I pulled down my copy of Four Gothic Kings. The edition I have is 1st printing, 1st American Edition. (1987, Weidenfield and Nocholson). The scan is from 27. The Caption reads, "Above: The Earl Marshall rose to prominence through his prowess with lance and sword; here he unhorses Baldwin de Guisnes at a tournament in 1233." The context of the page on which it occurs makes it clear that "The Earl Marshall" refers to William.


 * Corpus Christi College has digitized its entire manuscipt collection. This image is in MS 016 (fol. 88r), and CCC has labelled the illustration as "Fight of Mareschall at Monmouth?Man leads horses off on L." Unfotunatley my Latin is not up to reading the text on this page, and even it were, I'm also not up to reading the Gotich script.


 * Monmouth, however, has to be reference to the Battle oF Monmouth, so it would seem that Hallam did indeed confuse the two Marshalls.


 * She is probably still alive (she would only be 69), but I doubt that she's going to do much to correct an error in a caption from a book first published 32 years ago, if indeed anything could be done at this late date. Dsmdgold (talk) 01:43, 21 July 2019 (UTC)
