At Troynovant we are more interested in excellent or distinctive work than the merely timely or fashionable. Quality is always in season, and often more topical and entertaining than currency or fashion admit. Thus, we aim to refer and amuse, rather than to announce and forget. We avoid spoiling surprises in reviews that recommend; other works take their chances.

The latest several months' additions are listed here. You may need to reload / refresh this page in your browser to see the latest entries. This is a push-down stack: latest new items are at the top.

[France. The King's palace.]

King of France:

                                If she be
All that is virtuous, save what thou dislik'st —
'A poor physician's daughter' — thou dislik'st
Of virtue for the name. But do not do so.
From lowest place when virtuous things proceed,
The place is dignified by th' doer's deed.
  
Where great additions swell's, and virtue none,
It is a dropsied honor.

William Shakespeare
All's Well That Ends Well, 2.3.117-124


  
This is JMF's idea.
  

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.
