[Pericles' ship, off Mytilene.]
Pericles (to Helicanus):
Toward Ephesus
Turn our blown sails. Eftsoons I'll tell thee why.
— (to Lysimachus):
Shall we refresh us, sir, upon your shore,
And give you gold for such provision
As our intents will need?
William Shakespeare
Pericles, Prince of Tyre, Scene 21, 239-243

About our overlayered structure for this Troy-town maze of cultural stratigraphy — at Troynovant an entry is a review of
book or
story, of
film or
reel or
soundie,
if largely about a particular title; a glance or counterpoint to an article or curiosity is an
illuminant; a
folly mines a vein of humor, or if more pointed a
satire; a
memoir is a firsthand reminiscence; a
postcard showcases a flat-carded Scene of Passage; a
compilation gathers quotations stoking Trains of Thought;
otherwise generally an essay.
