I studied theology and philosphy in college and never heard of the CE (you would think a course on hermeneutics at Jesuit Fairfield would have at least mentioned it). Think I should ask for a refund?

Thanks for the links. It is a large resource and pointers on where to look for the good stuff is appreciated.

LOL..undoubtedly. Speaking as someone who often has his nose in older sources, my observation is that the quality of scholarship in general peaked around 1850-1900 and tanked after WWII. I much prefer reading primary source histories, or a good 19th century one rather than any modern version for example.

Oh hey, and if you find any other good CE articles freepmail me.
