ALL THE NEW URLS we receive each week are here. We list two (sometimes three) weeks' worth, cycling the old ones off each week. As they disappear from this page, you'll find the links moved to their natural home categories in our resource pages.

If you can't find something that was once here, you can look in our archives or try the AO search engine. It searches our entire site, and it can also search all of the sites that we link to.

Odds and Ends
History
Historic Christ Church in Virginia's Northern Neck: Although no longer a functioning parish, Christ Church 'completed in 1735, is the best preserved of Virginia's colonial Anglican parish churches. The quality and detail of its exterior brickwork, coupled with an interior that boasts the only set of high-backed pews and one of only two triple-decker pulpits remaining from colonial Virginia, add to the charm of this unique structure'. Have a look at this fascinating building, now a museum and popular site for events. -- http://www.christchurch1735.org

So what do Hannibal Lecter and Dante have in common? More than you might think.

Miscellaneous
Are you an Anglican? And a poet? Read on.

Research is being done towards collecting a worldwide Anthology of Modern Anglican Poets: 1950–present. We're soliciting information regarding suggestions of names and manuscripts of Anglican poets who may fit into this category. Here are the criteria for submission:

1) Poets from 1950 to the present must either have been raised Anglican or consider themselves to be currently active members of the Anglican Communion worldwide;

2) Poets must have a substantial body of published work, preferably in the field of poetry (but not limited to that), either in journals or published books. Other areas could include fiction, non-fiction, or theology.

For further information, contact the Reverend Pamela Lee Cranston at pcranstn@pacbell.net
