This English folk song dates back to late medieval times, when the seaside resort of Scarborough was an important venue for tradesmen from all over England. Founded well over a thousand years ago, Scarborough Faire was a 45 day trading event in medieval times. I used the Book of Hours to tell the story of Scarborough Faire and also the Canticle under it. The lyrics can be found here http://www.sing365.com/music/Lyric.nsf/SCARBOROUGH-FAIR-lyrics-Simon-and-Garfunkel/DF7763A4F14B2EEB48256896000FF5B9
Other paintings used included Vermeer and Van Ecke, both baroque painters around 500 years ago.

JayFireweaver I love your sense of optimism for the future. Unfortunately not shared by Einstein, who once said "I don't know with what weapons WW3 will be fought but WW4 will be fought with sticks and stones". Who shall I believe, you...or Einstein and his fear of technological regression?? Or maybe we can be confident WW3 will never happen. Hope you're right anyway, be happy.

Yes, let's hope WW3 ... ( 3 months ago by JayFireweaver)

Yes, let's hope WW3 never happens. Why not believe us both? WW3 (if it happens) will be fought with a amnner of horrifying weapons, much like the other wars. Why they cannot make it a war or words i do not know, it would be far more interesitng to hear about, and I think it would get more done. Thank you, I will be happy. You too man.
