NEW feature: the chorea scriptorum

March 30, 2007

We now have four occasional and recurring featured posts here at CommonPlaces:

1. commonplaces, where I provide a list of sometimes related new books here where I serve as a theological librarian,
2. book provenance,
3. random quotes from stacks,
4. and now chorea scriptorum, a latin phrase which, roughly translated, means “writer’s cramp.”

Given my newly self-imposed deadlines for research and writing over the next few months, I thought I would record the effects of my swotting and write summaries, reviews, and whatever else I may find helpful from the books I am reading. You can view the full list of books I am presently reading, preparing to read next, and those which I have recently finished reading here, in the chorea scriptorum library.

First up: Lori Branch’s Rituals of Spontaneity: Sentiment And Secularism from Free Prayer to Wordsworth which I finished yesterday.
