Editorial
Hello,
I seem to have spent quite a few of my recent editorials promising
exciting times ahead. Well, I seem to remember from my teaching days
that a string of never ending promises just ends in frustration. So
today we give you the first couple of many. A new website has gone
into testing for PG, see below for details. Even more exciting today
has seen the posting of the 3,000th text from DP, more on this below.
Have a great week.
Happy reading,
Alice

============= [ SUBMIT A NEW EBOOK FOR COPYRIGHT CLEARANCE ]==============
If you have a book you would like to confirm is in the public domain in
the US, and therefore suitable for Project Gutenberg, please do the
following:
1. Check whether we have the eBook already. Look in
http://gutenberg.net/GUTINDEX.ALL
which is updated weekly. (The searchable catalog at
http://www.gutenberg.net lags behind by several months)
2. Check the "in progress" list to see whether someone is already
working on the eBook. Sometimes, books are listed as in progress for
years - if so, email David Price (his address is on the list) to ask
for contact information for the person working on the book. The "in
progress" list:
http://www.dprice48.freeserve.co.uk/GutIP.html
3. If the book seems to be a good candidate (pre-1923 publication
date, or 1923-1988 published in the US without a copyright notice),
submit scans of the title page and verso page (even if the verso is
blank) to:
http://beryl.ils.unc.edu/copy.html
You'll hear back within a few days.
2) News and Comment
GETTING A COPY OF THE PROJECT GUTENBERG DVD OR CD
There have been loads of enquiries about this, so we include here help
and instructions.
We would prefer you download the CD or DVD image, as described below.
But if you would like a copy, we will send you a copy in the mail free
of charge (you can make a donation to offset our costs: visit
http://gutenberg.net/donate.shtml). When possible, we will send you
TWO copies, so you can give one away.
You can buy a copy of the CD from this site (a portion of all proceeds
go to Project Gutenberg):
http://supporttech.home.comcast.net/projgut.htm
You could also use a CD or DVD burner to copy the disc we send.
To receive a CD or DVD:
email your name and postal address
specify whether you want a CD or DVD
send to: "cd@pglaf.org"
We'll respond to let you know we got your message, and will send a CD
or DVD as soon as we can. Since the CDs and DVDs are produced by
volunteers (using their home computers), we cannot guarantee fast
delivery. Discs are sent via USPS or other inexpensive method.
Generally, the discs are hand-labeled and will arrive in a simple wrapper.
We will send them to you at any address, worldwide. We do not
have a program in place to send discs to other people on your behalf,
but are working on such a program for the future.
DOWNLOADING IMAGES FOR THE PROJECT GUTENBERG DVD AND CD
You can download these CD and DVD ISO images freely, and you are
encouraged to give away copies. See the details on the CD/DVD project
page for limitations on commercial use.
Start here for description, links to the ISO images, and checksums.
http://gutenberg.net/cdproject
The ISO format is a single large file. CD/DVD burning software can
write the file to a CD or DVD, which can then be read in any computer
with a CD or DVD reader. You need a drive that can write and a blank
disc to write the ISO images. These files are large, so not suitable
for download over a modem or other slow connection.
*** The DVD: About 9400 of our first 10,000 eBooks (none of the PG of
Australia eBooks are included due to copyright, and the audio eBooks
and human genome are left out due to size):
You can download the Project Gutenberg DVD image directly from these
sites:
ftp://ftp.ibiblio.org/pub/docs/books/gutenberg/cdimages/pgdvd.iso
(location: North Carolina. Very fast network connection)
ftp://underdog.arsc.alaska.edu/images/pgdvd.iso
or "rsync -rlHtSv ftp@underdog.arsc.alaska.edu::images ."
(location: Alaska. Fast network connection)
ftp://ftp.archive.org/pub/etext/cdimages/pgdvd.iso
(Location: San Francisco. Fast but saturated network connection)
The DVD file size is 4139646976.
MD5 sum is 59d8a193874349181122ff52e2e3e114
*** The CD: The August 2003 "Best of Gutenberg" CD contains over 950 eBooks.
The CD image is available as .ISO and .zip (the .zip contains the ISO):
ftp://ftp.ibiblio.org/pub/docs/books/gutenberg/cdimages/PG2003-08.ISO
ftp://ftp.ibiblio.org/pub/docs/books/gutenberg/cdimages/PG2003-08.zip

PG2003-08.zip MD5 sum: 2bf96ee51d593169ee5b08202b41179d size 387828452 bytes
We are working to make our images available via BitTorrent, but they
are not there yet. The CD is available via the eDonkey peer to peer
network at this address:
ed2k://|file|The.Project.Gutenberg.CD.August.2003.Edition.-.PG2003-08.zip|387828452|0485242D72E3B440D7D9FD61F0ED44DD|/
Email "cd@pglaf.org" if you need help with the CD or DVD image. If
you can BURN CDs or DVDs for us to give away, please let us know!

Wikipedia ebook discussion
This from an idea put forward by one of the volunteers this week.
A wiki or similar forum might be a great way to provide reader support
services to discuss an eBook.
Wikipedias sister project tries to accomplish a similiar job:
http://wikibooks.org/wiki/Annotated_works
So if you would like to discuss a book from PG, this seems to be a
great forum in which to do it. As far as we know there is nothing
particularly specific that relates PG to Wikibooks, so maybe this is
the time to improve this.
With thanks to Karl Eichwalder
To be found in this weeks ebooklistings this week
At Last, by Charles Kingsley 10669
For those wishing to know: this is the last major work Kingsley wrote. His
family had come from the West Indies and it was his life-long ambition to
visit the islands. It's his account of the trip. However, Kingsley was also
very keen on natural history and spends a good deal of the book giving the
Latin names for the plants and animals he comes across.
Game and Playe of the Chesse, by Caxton 10672
Extract from the Introduction of this remarkable book:
"Snuffy Davy bought the 'Game of Chess, 1474,' the first book ever printed
in England, from a stall in Holland for about two groschen, or two-pence of
our money."

Distributed Proofreaders Update
Happy new year!
Yes, I know, you've heard it before. You've heard it so many times in
fact that by now it seems to have little true resonance. Now I don't
write the news here, I just make it up, so far be it for me to play
shepherd of meaning, but I can recognize a New Year when I see
one. Fresh from the gate, 2004 has all the markings a unique life
form. 2003, wonderful as it was for DP, is truly a creature of
history.
Now happiness is a subjective perception, so can a year, in and of
itself, actuallybe happy? For you and me we say "yes." However there
are few readers in the back of the room shaking their heads, so let's
see what can be revealed within these past couple of weeks to dissuade
them out of their disbelief.
Throughout the world, many of our spiritual traditions express the
idea that the surestpath to happiness is found by giving to
others. The unselfish gift so often proves an inspiration for joy. As
anyone who has experienced some will tell you, joy is very
contagious. Spread some of this good stuff around at the beginning of
a year, and sure as the sun warms your skin, joy will flow forward and
illuminate the weeks and months which follow.
Now if you are Distributed Proofreaders how do you start this wheel of
happiness spinning? What do you give, more than what you already do,
and how should you decide who best to give to over another. Ah... both
valid questions, true. But you must know by now that I have thought
about this, thought a great deal in fact. The answer is right at our
feet, the very ground we stand upon shines up at us like the
proverbial "acres of diamonds." That ground is the public domain. "But
we already give to the public domain," I hear from the back of the
room; "In fact, that's all DP lives to do." True indeed ... but the
operative word in my opening wish was "new." This is a new year, and
if we desire it to be different than other years, we must do things in
new ways. This includes giving in new ways as well.
DP lives within the USA, and so we operate under the limits upon the
public domain which presently are imposed upon the USA. It is fair to
say that over the past several years, those of us who live fenced off
from an ever increasing public domain have forgotten the pleasure that
rises when a favorite book is at last released to the public good at
the start of the new year. Yet in countries around the globe, works by
a vast selection of authors were set free this January first. Not
single titles alone, but entire libraries of work have for the first
time become freely available where the laws allow copyright to be
retained for 50-70 years beyond an author's life.
Across the European Union, the works of authors who passed away in
1933 have been free to all for these past two weeks. If you are a fan
of Robert William Chambers, John Galsworthy, Sara Teasdale or George
Augustus Moore and live within a 70+ country, I do envy you the
pleasures that are yours to enjoy this month and beyond. How fine it
must be to at last partake to your heart's content of the thoughts,
feelings and ideas of a favorite author! Well, at least to the extent
of what is available by these authors in Project Gutenberg. Ah!
... and here is true path to happiness for this year. Here is what
Distributed Proofreaders can give in a manner beyond what it already
does and focus that direction upon a specific audience.
With an inspired, dedicated effort, that I will personally champion,
those at DP who desire to, can help expand the existing PG libraries
by authors new to the public domain in the +50-70 countries. This will
of course be limited to those works of a pre-23 vintage, but this
remains to be quite a large number of titles. Watch for details about
this initiative in the forums over the coming days, there is
participation to be enjoyed at every level of research and production,
as well as a promise of happiness that will stay with you long beyond
the borders of this year and on into your life. Even among our own DP
community we have so much to give and in so doing show the gratitude
for all that has been already given by those members from certain
countries where other projects at DP were not open for the PD in their
home country. There is so much to give through this effort and so much
to be received in return. A happy new year it is and a happy new year
it continue to be.
This year sees a vast and wondrously promising expansion of the DP
dream, which will fill the news of the next couple of weeks. This is
one of the original promises of the Internet kept and true, the
collaborative effort of dedicated individuals throughout the world
working for a better and brighter future. Stay tuned!!
What would a new year be without a significant milestone? Today we
celebrate a very big one. Just a couple of hours ago, the 3,000th
completed project at DP was posted to Project Gutenberg. Yes, it was
just in September that we completed the 2,000th project. And yes, that
IS pretty amazing, but hey, we amazin' folks!
Okay, some of us are amazin'! Like Karl Hagen, for instance, who took
on the heroic labor of post processing The Anatomy of Melancholy, by
Democritus Junior. A project which is legendary in the history & lore
of DP. The setting of this project as the commemorative DP3K posting
is a small gesture of appreciation to Karl and all the DP members who
put their efforts into bringing this book to PG.
Following that feat of dedication, there is no more to say.
Until next week...all the best to each and all of you, now and for the
50 weeks ahead!

3) Notes and Queries, Reviews and Features
The Anatomy of Melancholy, by Democritus Junior (Robert Burton)
An extract from the introduction:
"ADVERTISEMENT TO THE LAST LONDON EDITION (1652 ?)
The work now restored to public notice has had an extraordinary fate. At
the time of its original publication it obtained a great celebrity, which
continued more than half a century. During that period few books were more
read, or more deservedly applauded. It was the delight of the learned, the
solace of the indolent, and the refuge of the uninformed. It passed through
at least eight editions, by which the bookseller, as WOOD records, got an
estate; and, notwithstanding the objection sometimes opposed against it, of
a quaint style, and too great an accumulation of authorities, the
fascination of its wit, fancy, and sterling sense, have borne down all
censures, and extorted praise from the first Writers in the English
language. The grave JOHNSON has praised it in the warmest terms, and the
ludicrous STERNE has interwoven many parts of it into his own popular
performance. MILTON did not disdain to build two of his finest poems on it;
and a host of inferior writers have embellished their works with beauties
not their own, culled from a performance which they had not the justice
even to mention. Change of times, and the frivolity of fashion, suspended,
in some degree, that fame which had lasted near a century; and the
succeeding generation affected indifference towards an author, who at
length was only looked into by the plunderers of literature, the poachers
in obscure volumes. The plagiarisms of _Tristram Shandy_, so successfully
brought to light by DR. FERRIAR, at length drew the attention of the public
towards a writer, who, though then little known, might, without impeachment
of modesty, lay claim to every mark of respect; and inquiry proved, beyond
a doubt, that the calls of justice had been little attended to by others,
as well as the facetious YORICK. WOOD observed, more than a century ago,
that several authors had unmercifully stolen matter from BURTON without any
acknowledgment. The time, however, at length arrived, when the merits of
the _Anatomy of Melancholy_ were to receive their due praise. The book was
again sought for and read, and again it became an applauded performance."
The Anatomy of Melancholy - it stil sends shivers down my spine and I
only proofed one page. This has to be one of the most scary books I
have ever laid eyes on, but that must not diminish it's
importance. The Anatomy of Melancholy was published eight times during
the authors lifetime, a rare enough event these days, never mind 400
years ago. The books' subject matter is depression, "Burton believed
depression to be both a physical and spiritual ailment. Prompted by
his own bouts with the affliction, he employed his considerable
erudition and wit to write what amounts to the first psychiatric
encyclopedia, citing early 500 medical authors in the course of
classifying the myriad causes, forms and symptoms of depression, and
describing its various cures (Norman)"
The work reveals Burton's delight in English literature and his
'roving humour'. He quotes from Shakespeare, Jonson, Daniel, Drayton,
and Florio's Montaigne. His own library at Christ Church was filled
with such works, and his bequest of more than 800 volumes to the
Bodleian Library laid the foundations for Bodley's collection of
English literature.
The first edition is the only one of the eight life-time editions in
which the 'Conclusion' is included, at the end of which Burton's name
appears - not that his authorship was any secret.
A search on the internet turned up an antiquarian bookseller asking an
amazing 32000 GB pounds for a copy.
Alice
Hilaire Belloc
This was brought to our attention a while ago. There appear to be many
and various works of Belloc available for use in PG. These include
Cautionary Tales for Children
Avril, Being Essays on Poetry of the French Renaissance
The Four Men: A Farrago
The French Revolution
Servile State
Hilaire Belloc (1870 - 1953), was born close to Paris, but due to the
Franco-Prussian war was educated in England. He attended Oxford
University and served as a member of Parliament for Salford South. His
first work was published in 1896, and over 150 volumes were eventually
published.

Editorial
Hello,
Ah, here we are another year older and hopefully, another year
wiser. The end of the production year rolls into view and expect more
from Michael on that later in the week. At this time of year people
seem to do predictions, I don't think I dare at the moment, given the
way that targets and predictions seem to disappear at an ever
increasing rate.
Have a great week.
Happy reading,
Alice

for contact information for the person working on the book. The "in
progress" list:
http://www.dprice48.freeserve.co.uk/GutIP.html
3. If the book seems to be a good candidate (pre-1923 publication

3) Notes and Queries, Reviews and Features
'Simple but smashing laughter of the best tales of Mr. W. W. Jacobs'
- Cockneys and their Jokes, G. K. Chesterton
The gloria mundi not only transits but also does some unexpected
twists. The old debauchee-captains, mates in love and resourceful
ship's boys are now almost forgotten, smashed by old scary monkey
paw. And who was once told to represent 'the return of great comic
classics', now deserves one line on the hyperdictionary.com 'English
writer of macabre short stories (1863-1943)' and his books are listed
in the division of horrors. Actually, it fits perfectly to Mr. Jacobs
narrative's style. Almost always twisted at the end, elaborated pieces
of craftsmanship are they, the short stories about turmoils and
affairs of the people dwelling around Thames.
Funny, but besides the sacramental numbers 1863 - 1943 not much info
about this writer can be found in the cobweb-threads, only plaintive
cries for help from those who has to write a school essay about this
once extremely popular author. OK, here is what could be found after
painstaking scraping:
Mister William Wymark Jacobs was born on September 8, 1863 in the
humble house of wharf manager, that was located on the wharf itself in
the docs of Wapping in London. Surely the modesty is a relative thing
and for the most of the seafarers the manager's house was a symbol of
wealth and prosperity. The young Jacobs has got an education in
private schools - small business-like institutions run by an
entrepreneurial proprietor. Opposite to the expensive 'public' schools
for upper classes. After finishing his education at the age of 16,
William took a position as a clerk in Post Office Savings Bank. O, my
after real life of docs, boats and sea journeys during not too
demanding school times, the work as a small clerk was chocking. He
hated this 'captivity' passionately and dreamed about freedom. And
naturally he started to write, creating his own world based on his
limited but colorful experiences. Seafaring adventures without pirates
or big proud galleons, sailing journeys to the nearest river doc,
funny somewhat awkward love affairs of bargemen and dockworkers ? poor
but sympathetic life of the simple people around him. Since 1885 he
started to publish his works in minor magazines, but his first
collection of the short stories 'Many Cargoes' was published only in
the year 1896 (http://gutenberg.net/etext04/mncrg10.txt). For the
person who grew up in the world where earning bread was inexplicitly
by the sweat of one's brow, was very hard to believe that he may draw
his wage from something so ephemeral as writing the stories. So he
allowed to himself to leave his hated post at the Savings Bank only in
1898 after publishing his third collection 'Sea Urchins', that was
also published at the same time in New York as 'More Cargoes' (an
American publisher decided probably to show the connection with first
success more clearly ?). At this time he was already a known and
successful writer, who's works appeared in Jerome K. Jerome's Idle and
To-Day and even accepted in the Strand - the most prestigious fiction
magazine at that time. At the year 1900 he took even more unusual step
and married socialist and suffragette Agnes Eleanor
Williams. According to the rumors their alliance was not perfect.. The
conservative, careful and even little bit pessimistic William was
scarcely a real friend of energetic suffragist that wanted to change
this old world for good. If to apply Freud theory and to analyze his
stories, however, he was ready and accustomed for the confrontational
manner of the male-female relationships. In most of his novel about
married life a woman is demanding and a man tries to avoid fulfilling
her demands as peaceful as possible ? a good example is
http://gutenberg.net/1/0/5/6/10561/10561.txt . In any case Agnes and
William stayed together and even raised four children ? two boys and
two girls. Since 1916 Jacobs writes little and more adapting his old
stories into short plays. He died popular in London nursing house at
the age of eighty the middle of WW2.
And for the summery and discussion part - David Widger is now loading
the collection 'Ship's company' to PG - it will be nice to read
them. Even with not much of intellectual curiosity as snobbishly
said once about the author Arnold Bennet, Jacobs' stories are
enjoyable and perfectly done like a home-made soup of Grandma. So
hopefully the curse of Monkey Paw will be cleared off, and in the
future the writer will take his honorable place somewhere nearby
O'Henry and old Jerome in the long internet reference lists.
There is another collection already on PG:
http://gutenberg.net/etext04/shrcs10.txt, and for those who reads in
Russian http://abssf.narod.ru/st-cap.htm. In web you can find plenty
of terrifying camp-story versions, so if you like to be scared to
death you can help yourself and search for 'Monkey Paw'. That it is
more or less,
Sweet reading to all of you,
Gali

.:: HOW TO GET EBOOKS FROM PROJECT GUTENBERG ::.
The easiest way to obtain our eBooks is at our search page at
http://gutenberg.net/find.shtml
which allows searching by title, author or eBook number; there is also
an Advanced Search page which allows for additional search criteria
(note that our newer postings may not yet be indexed for all additional
criteria).
And please note: you can now obtain a listing by language at the above
link.
Mirrors (copies) of the complete collection are available around the
world, and you can select one nearer to your location from the link on
the search results page.
To see a listing of mirror sites, and locate the one nearest to you,
visit:
http://gutenberg.net/list.shtml
EBooks numbered 1 to 10000 are located in "release year" directories. Over
time, the "release year" advanced, so that by November 2003 the release year
was 2006. Starting with eBook #10001, they are filed by their official eBook
number, with a unique subdirectory based on that eBook number.
FOR EBOOKS NUMBERED GREATER THAN 10000
To get to a directory listing you can use either:
http://gutenberg.net/1/
- or -
ftp://gutenberg.net/pub/docs/books/gutenberg/1/
. . .navigate down through the subdirectories until you get to the
appropriate level, and then select the file you wish to download,
using your usual download procedures. This system works on mirrors,
too, and will hold all eBooks starting with the number "1" for
10,000 and beyond.
FOR EBOOKS NUMBERED 1 THROUGH 10000:
Use your Web browser or FTP program to visit our master download site (or
a mirror) if you know the filename and year you want. For example:
http://gutenberg.net/etext06/
- or -
ftp://gutenberg.net/pub/docs/books/gutenberg/etext06/
and look for the first five letters of the filesname. Note that updated
eBooks usually go in their original directory (e.g., etext99, etext00, etc.)

.:: HOW TO GET EBOOKS FROM PROJECT GUTENBERG ::.
The easiest way to obtain our eBooks is at our search page at
http://gutenberg.net/find.shtml
which allows searching by title and author; there is also an Advanced
Search page which allows for additional search criteria (note that our
newer postings may not yet be indexed for all additional criteria).
And please note: you can now obtain a listing by language at the above
link.
Mirrors (copies) of the complete collection are available around the
world, and you can select one nearer to your location from the link on
the search results page.
To see a listing of mirror sites, and locate the one nearest to you,
visit:
http://gutenberg.net/list.shtml
EBooks numbered 1 to 10000 are located in "release year" directories. Over
time, the "release year" advanced, so that by November 2003 the release year
was 2006. Starting with eBook #10001, they are filed by their official eBook
number, with a unique subdirectory based on that eBook number.
FOR EBOOKS NUMBERED GREATER THAN 10000
To get to a directory listing you can use either:
http://gutenberg.net/1/
- or -
ftp://gutenberg.net/pub/docs/books/gutenberg/1/
. . .navigate down through the subdirectories until you get to the
appropriate level, and then select the file you wish to download,
using your usual download procedures. This system works on mirrors,
too, and will hold all eBooks starting with the number "1" for
10,000 and beyond.
FOR EBOOKS NUMBERED 1 THROUGH 10000:
Use your Web browser or FTP program to visit our master download site (or
a mirror) if you know the filename and year you want. For example:
http://gutenberg.net/etext06/
- or -
ftp://gutenberg.net/pub/docs/books/gutenberg/etext06/
and look for the first five letters of the filesname. Note that updated
eBooks usually go in their original directory (e.g., etext99, etext00, etc.)

============= [ SUBMIT A NEW EBOOK FOR COPYRIGHT CLEARANCE ]==============
If you have a book you would like to confirm is in the public domain in
the US, and therefore suitable for Project Gutenberg, please do the
following:
1. Check whether we have the eBook already. Look in
http://gutenberg.net/GUTINDEX.ALL
which is updated weekly. (The searchable catalog at
http://www.gutenberg.net lags behind by several months)
2. Check the "in progress" list to see whether someone is already
working on the eBook. Sometimes, books are listed as in progress for
years - if so, email David Price (his address is on the list) to ask
for contact information for the person working on the book. The "in
progress" list:
http://www.dprice48.freeserve.co.uk/GutIP.html
3. If the book seems to be a good candidate (pre-1923 publication
date, or 1923-1988 published in the US without a copyright notice),
submit scans of the title page and verso page (even if the verso is
blank) to:
http://beryl.ils.unc.edu/copy.html
You'll hear back within a few days.
2) News and Comment
To tell the truth, we are a bit short on news this week. However, I
can report that Distributed Proofreaders has successfully negotiated
it's way through a server move and the disruption it was suffering
seems to have gone away. There are a couple of threads in the forums
for Proofers to record their memories of 2003 which has turned into DP's
most successful year to date, and to note predictions and hopes for
2004. All contributions are welcome, and I suspect there may be just a
small party happening out there tonight.

3) Notes and Queries, Reviews and Features
Following last weeks article about Folkden recordings, Gali takes a
look at what else is out there for interested souls.
The embroidered in silk and beadings sarafan or old wool rug in
arabesques do not have a signature of a self-centered genius, however
their impersonal pattern still touches and warms our souls and homes,
being sometimes ridiculously misused, though. As the embellished
bridle is hanging on the wall, or the wedding-vessel holds the
pencils. And same for the old folk songs - even taken out of their
context, they still sound good to our modern ear. They never come from
the mind, so there is no complicated constructions or ambitious
attempts, they are more like an embodied emotion. That is, one single
emotion expressed on the proper occasion. And as to fully appreciate
Bedouin clothing you should ride a camel under cruel desert sun, to
understand the real value of the wild rider song, you should probably
get a horse and at least few kilometers of the free ride. But we are
listening to the passionate cante jondo without desire to love and
kill; in the middle of crowded town, Slavic songs bring us the feeling
of 'black' unbearable anguish in the waste space of earth with no soul
on it, or Celtic melodies evoke a sense of fight and hidden fire
under the cloudy northern skies, when we come back home from our very
prosaic job. We are consuming pure emotions embedded in the old chip
of simple melody and naïve words. In some sense it is an emotional
dope. May be this is why people can not actually listen to folk music
for long time in a row - it becomes an overdose.
All the above is implied 10 times stronger to the performers not
saying about composers. The professional passion or artificial irony
kills this fragile construction as careless touch destroys Buddhists'
sand pictures. Annoying and boring are the attempts of imitation and
very rarely the rearrangement is as good as original. And even when we
come to later urban folk music, the most successful examples are
created by anonymous, honestly drinking in the smelly pubs and
courting witty serving girls, and expressing in their verses not
personified feeling of a human being in certain situation. No
ego-reflections or back thoughts permitted in the real folk. The
successful stylizations such as Turlough O'Carolan, are good because
they little in common with the real folk music, filling its simple
form with the complicated content, as in the expensive restaurant it
is perversely delightful to have complex dish in the rough rural
plate. The folk song is very reach theme for a research and many smart
and talented written long interesting lines about it ? Frederico
Garcia Lorca, Jorge Borhes, K.Balmont and many others. But these notes
are serving only one simple purpose ? to evoke an interest to the
theme in you, dear reader, so you will find what folk music is for
yourself and highly probably that you will completely disagree with
all what is written above. Which will mean that my goal was achieved
and one more little piece of the great puzzle has come to its place in
your world.

Unfortunately I could not find any site for free downloading of
Spanish, Georgian or Bulgarian folk music - that I personally like
very much. Maybe some of you will have more success.

.:: HOW TO GET EBOOKS FROM PROJECT GUTENBERG ::.
The easiest way to obtain our eBooks is at our search page at
http://gutenberg.net/find.shtml
which allows searching by title and author; there is also an Advanced
Search page which allows for additional search criteria (note that our
newer postings may not yet be indexed for all additional criteria).
And please note: you can now obtain a listing by language at the above
link.
Mirrors (copies) of the complete collection are available around the
world, and you can select one nearer to your location from the link on
the search results page.
To see a listing of mirror sites, and locate the one nearest to you,
visit:
http://gutenberg.net/list.shtml
EBooks numbered 1 to 10000 are located in "release year" directories. Over
time, the "release year" advanced, so that by November 2003 the release year
was 2006. Starting with eBook #10001, they are filed by their official eBook
number, with a unique subdirectory based on that eBook number.
FOR EBOOKS NUMBERED GREATER THAN 10000
To get to a directory listing you can use either:
http://gutenberg.net/1/
- or -
ftp://gutenberg.net/pub/docs/books/gutenberg/1/
. . .navigate down through the subdirectories until you get to the
appropriate level, and then select the file you wish to download,
using your usual download procedures. This system works on mirrors,
too, and will hold all eBooks starting with the number "1" for
10,000 and beyond.
FOR EBOOKS NUMBERED 1 THROUGH 10000:
Use your Web browser or FTP program to visit our master download site (or
a mirror) if you know the filename and year you want. For example:
http://gutenberg.net/etext06/
- or -
ftp://gutenberg.net/pub/docs/books/gutenberg/etext06/
and look for the first five letters of the filesname. Note that updated
eBooks usually go in their original directory (e.g., etext99, etext00, etc.)

============= [ SUBMIT A NEW EBOOK FOR COPYRIGHT CLEARANCE ]==============
If you have a book you would like to confirm is in the public domain in
the US, and therefore suitable for Project Gutenberg, please do the
following:
1. Check whether we have the eBook already. Look in
http://gutenberg.net/GUTINDEX.ALL
which is updated weekly. (The searchable catalog at
http://www.gutenberg.net lags behind by several months)
2. Check the "in progress" list to see whether someone is already
working on the eBook. Sometimes, books are listed as in progress for
years - if so, email David Price (his address is on the list) to ask
for contact information for the person working on the book. The "in
progress" list:
http://www.dprice48.freeserve.co.uk/GutIP.html
3. If the book seems to be a good candidate (pre-1923 publication
date, or 1923-1988 published in the US without a copyright notice),
submit scans of the title page and verso page (even if the verso is
blank) to:
http://beryl.ils.unc.edu/copy.html
You'll hear back within a few days.
2) News and Comment
Roger McGuinn's Folkden Recordings
Coming through to Project Gutenberg this week are a series of
recordings first started in 1997 by Roger McGuinn. Roger has set up a
website on ibiblio where he gives away one new song a month. Actually,
when we say new, we mean old. Roger's intention is to help preserve
traditional folksong by giving away traditional tunes and new songs
developed in the folk tradition. On the website Roger explains how the
songs are recorded for internet use. He also includes the songwords
and guitar chords and tuning, so that you can sing and play the songs
yourself, and thereby help to keep the folk tradition alive.
The folkden website is at www.ibiblio.org/jimmy/folkden/index.html
and the songs are available for download as audio files from Project
Gutenberg.

How much have we given away?
Only a few years ago, we received the first report
that one of our Project Gutenberg sites had given
away a million eBooks in a single year.
Just now I received a note that says gutenberg.net
will likely hand out over TEN million eBooks in the
coming year.
gutenberg.net is a VERY noise-free site, with only
about 2.6 hits taken to generate each downloaded book!
More details on request.

GLOBAL INTERNET USE LIMITED BY LANGUAGE, ILLITERACY
According to the International Telecommunication Union, about 70% of the
world's Internet users live in countries that make up only 16% of the
world's population. To address the problem of population illiteracy,
South Africa is developing speech recognition, text-to-speech and
other voice technologies, starting with Zulu. Bulgaria, South Korea
are amongst many countries producing government sites in native
languages. The Canadian government is looking at adapting its
internal search engine to include materials in Inuktitut, the Inuit
language, as well as French and English.

NORWEGIAN APPEALS COURT UPHOLDS ACQUITTAL
A Norwegian appeals court has upheld a lower court ruling acquitting
Jon Johansen of copyright violations. The seven-judge panel agreed
unanimously that Johansen did not violate copyright laws of Norway when
he broke the encryption for DVDs and then posted his code on the
Internet for others to use. The appeals court ruled that under
Norwegian law, circumventing the copy-protection mechanism to make
personal copies of legally purchased DVDs is acceptable, even more so
than making copies of a book would be since DVDs can become scratched
and unusable. Prosecutors have two weeks to decide if they will appeal
the case to Norway's supreme court.

Project Gutenberg and Plucker
A PDA always seemed an unnecessary gadget which I would never need,
until I went camping with Lord Jim. Now Conrad and other great books
from Project Gutenberg have made my Palm PDA totally indispensable; I
really can't imagine being without it, and if I leave the house or
office without it I feel as if I've lost a friend.
I use a Palm IIIxe, which is getting antique, but with a PC-connecting
cradle it costs about $50 on EBay, runs for three weeks on two AAA
batteries, and has 8 Mb of RAM so can hold a good number of
ebooks. For example my pocket library today includes: Daniel Deronda
(PG), Three Men in a Boat (PG), The Magic Door (PG), Emma (PG), Pepys'
Diary 1660 (PG), Down and Out in the Magic Kingdom (Doctorow), and
several technical books.
Although holding a book is more pleasurable than holding a PDA, there
are compensations, such as being able to read in the dark using the
PDA backlight (which doesn't wake my wife, and is excellent for
camping); and being able to carry a dozen or more ebooks in my shirt
pocket. At first I imagined that the small screen size would make for
difficulties, but my experience has been that the Palm is just another
Magic Door.
There are many ebook readers for the Palm, but my favorite is Plucker,
a free, open-source reader that includes the tool to make your
ebooks. Plucker is a free download (though the developers appreciate
any monetary encouragement you can give) from
http://www.plkr.org/index.plkr
The Plucker web site has a link to a helpful online mailing list for
any questions.
Plucker is designed to be an offline reader for HTML, so can be used
for downloading and viewing Web pages as well as for reading
ebooks. This has a slight disadvantage that Project Gutenberg texts
need to be converted to HTML before Plucker can use them, but it can
be a simple single-step process, and has already been done for many PG
texts. Using HTML as input is also an advantage, because it allows
book layout to be preserved, and chapters to be accessed directly. (In
other ebook readers it may be necessary to page through the whole text
to reach a given chapter.)
I have avoided using most of the commercial ebook readers (which
usually incorporate digital rights management,) so it's possible that
there may be good products among them, if you don't mind being locked
in.
Beyond Project Gutenberg, sources for Plucker ebooks are easy to find
using Google. The University of Adelaide Library Ebook Collection at
http://etext.library.adelaide.edu.au/ has a good set of PG texts
converted to HTML which Plucker can easily "pluck" directly.

3) Notes and Queries, Reviews and Features
Newsletter Cookery Club
This week we are focusing on festive drinks. All the recipes below are
drawn from the 1837 Directions for Cookery, in its Various Branches,
by Eliza Leslie
[http://www.ibiblio.org/pub/docs/books/gutenberg/etext05/8cook10.txt].
The preface of this cookery book notes:
"The success of her little book entitled "Seventy-five Receipts in
Cakes, Pastry, and Sweetmeats." has encouraged the author to attempt a
larger and more miscellaneous work on the subject of cookery,
comprising as far as practicable whatever is most useful in its
various departments; and particularly adapted to the domestic economy
of her own country. Designing it as a manual of American housewifery,
she has avoided the insertion of any dishes
whose ingredients cannot be procured on our side of the Atlantic, and
which require for their preparation utensils that are rarely found
except in Europe. Also, she has omitted every thing which may not, by
the generality of tastes, be considered good of its kind, and well
worth the trouble and cost of preparing."
This text includes numerous recipes for beverages, including the
following selections:
EGG NOGG.
Beat separately the yolks and whites of six eggs. Stir the yolks into
a quart of rich milk, or thin cream, and add half a pound of
sugar. Then mix in half a pint of rum or brandy. Flavour it with a
grated nutmeg. Lastly, stir in gently the beaten white of an egg.
It should be mixed in a china bowl.
MULLED WINE.
Boil together in a pint of water two beaten nutmegs, a handful of
broken cinnamon, and a handful of cloves slightly pounded. When the
liquid is reduced to one half, strain it into a quart of port wine,
which must be set on hot coals, and taken off as soon as it comes to a
boil. Serve it up hot in a pitcher with little glass cups round it,
and a plate of fresh rusk.
PUNCH.
Roll twelve fine lemons under your hand on the table; then pare off
the yellow rind very thin, and boil it in a gallon of water till all
the flavour is drawn out. Break up into a large bowl, two pounds of
loaf-sugar, and squeeze the lemons over it. When the water has boiled
sufficiently, strain it from the lemon-peel, and mix it with the lemon
juice and sugar. Stir in a quart of rum or of the best whiskey.
And as a non-alcoholic choice, we offer the author's instructions on how
TO MAKE CHOCOLATE
To each square of a chocolate cake allow three jills, or a chocolate
cup and a half of boiling water. Scrape down the
chocolate with a knife, and mix it first to a paste with a small
quantity of the hot water; just enough to melt it in. Then put it into
a block tin pot with the remainder of the water; set it on hot coals;
cover it, and let it boil (stirring it twice) till the liquid is one
third reduced. Supply that third with cream or rich milk; stir it
again, and take it off the fire. Serve it up as hot as possible, with
dry toast, or dry rusk. It chills immediately. If you wish it frothed,
pour it into the cup, and twirl round in it the little wooden
instrument called a chocolate mill, till you have covered the top with
foam.

Project Gutenberg eBook, Two Centuries of Costume in America by Alice
Morse Earle
This is a book first posted to the PG Archive in November. It comes in
fourteen volumes and on the fascinating scale it hits a big ten. The
first volume is the explanation for the illustrations in the other
volumes giving the background and context for the illustrations
themselves as well as the costumes portrayed. Now, when it comes to
this kind of thing in museums, I am usually the person at the back
being Bart Simpson, you know, looking in the things you're not
supposed to touch and generally goofing around. This set of books
though is in a different realm, it really is interesting to see how
people used to dress and why. You can find the book at
http://www.gutenberg.net/1/0/1/1/10115/10115-h/10115-h.htm#I
I think this is one case where the HTML version is essential.

Who to thank this week?
Well, everyone of course. Brett, George, Joe, Greg, Michael, and
everyone who chips in volunteering with the stuff that keeps the
wheels of PG turning. Everyone here at the newsletter, Gali, Tonya,
Brett, George, Thierry, me and Suzy the newsletter cat. All those
people who have sent in suggestions this year and have programmed
stuff to help me out. The nice people who provide entertainment as we
type, which includes a couple of CD collections and BBC Radio,
particularly BBC 6Music which is available via the internet and well
worth listening to (this isn't advertising as I have paid my licence
fee), Roger McGuinn and everyone else who has donated something to PG
this year. 'And anyone else who knows me'
Here's hoping you have a pleasant holiday.
