X-POSTED TO Mantovano, MEDTEXTL, ANSAXNET, FICINO

I had a spare hour this evening, and thought it would be nice to update the
Rough Virgil Bibliography:

http://student-www.uchicago.edu/users/dswilson/virglbib.html

I've added some entries (the file has about doubled in size) and some new
categories:

- Landino
- Renaissance Translations
- Renaissance Imitations
- Secondary Works on Renaissance Imitations

There are some big lacunae, and the old caveat about accuracy still applies.
Many of these entries have now been checked against WorldCat, as well as the
work itself when I've had it in hand, but there are still many entries that
are either incomplete or simply erroneous.

I hope listmembers find it useful.
