The Unwritten Seven-Seven Challenge:
75 book challenges? 50 book challenges? Hey - like the song says, "I'm no Superman." I gave fleeting consideration to the number "10" and then dismissed it as being far too ambitious, settling instead on the 7-7 Challenge.
The Challenge: read seven historically significant works written in seven consecutive centuries during the Mediæval Period in their original languages. My personal picks for 2011:
9th Century: Latin: Einhard: Vita Karoli Magni
10th Century: Hebrew: רבי שלמה יצחקי: חומש מדרש
11th Century: English: Beowulf
12th Century: Greek: Άννα Κομνηνή: Ἀλεξιάς
13th Century: German: Mechthild von Magdeburg: Das fliessende Licht der Gottheit
14th Century: Italian: Giovanni Villani: Nuova Cronica
15th Century: French: La Farce de Maître Pierre Pathelin
The Prize: I don't know about you, but I'm treating myself to a nice dinner when I'm finished. - Woonplaats
