All I know of Rev. Hiram Price Collier is that he published a book with the intriguing title Doubtful Experiments in Rhyme in 1888, and he married his best friend's widow.
I'd like to know when he was born and died. My searches have turned up nothing. -- Jack of Oz [pleasantries] 05:02, 22 July 2020 (UTC)
Hello, role reversal in the USA binary political system has been published so much that there could (should) be a Wikipedia article on it. Is there? Is there any material available inexpensively for someone interested in a deeper study of that aspect? A simple web search pulls stuff out of a hat, but it is about as revealing as saying, these guys were left, and these guys were right.. and then they weren't... And it generally covers a narrow time period, i.e., it's usually an article about something else particular, not about role reversal itself. Any leads on that score? ~ R. T.

I have noticed that the art style of this illustration is not even remotely similar to other medieval art: https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Dame_guiraude_supplice.jpg
The foreshortening and other aspects of the artwork make it seem to be more like modern fantasy art than anything else. I don't speak French, but the text seems to be modern French. I know next to nothing about paleography, but even the handwriting seems to be modern.
But, the file itself is classified as being in the common domain due to age. I very much doubt it. BirdValiant ( talk) 13:52, 22 July 2020 (UTC)
