Renaissance

[close] Reading about having many interests. An international group for those who want to understand and improve themselves. Pressure free option: Start and finish any book in the group's shelves at any time and revive the discussion. Accountability option: Chosen book of the month to discuss on the last day of the month. Suggest books you want to read. I want to read useful and practical books about having lots of interests and I thought others might also.

[close] Enter at your own peril... this is the most dangerous group in all of Europe! Haha no, not really. We aren't even European... well, not all of us! If you have stumbled across this page, either you are or have a friend who thinks you are a history geek or a writing freak (in a compassionate way :D) who would appreciate what we do here, so we present... Giulianzo's Plato's Academy of Florence and the Confraternity of the Magi ; the new, improved, and awesome group that totally appreciates all things relating to the Mr. Medicis (especially Lorenzo and Giuliano [hence Giulian-zo's Academy]), writing, history (generally from before 0 to 1850), etc. The only things that are better than the original one is that 1) We are free to be heretic as we like; 2) The internet rocks, and 3) We have air conditioning! If you haven't already, before joining this group, you might want to become at least a little familiar with the books in the bookshelf. Add your own too :) Please participate and have fun :)

[close] A group open for Renaissance fiction lovers!

[close] We read too! It is such a stereotype that young people don't read books and it is time we fight back and prove everyone wrong. Such comments saying young people don't read, are uneducated or read only "stupid" books make me sick, so now we have this group to show that we like books and we enjoy the company of a good book, comic or manga.
