Costumes

Is it appropriate to put costumes for sale on this site?

I have stayed the same weight for the past 3 years and have decided to get rid of costumes both to big and small for me.

Nyutgivning av Svensk Knekt

Kring millennieskiftet gavs Svensk Knekt ut i något eller några nummer. Syftet var att sprida de senaste rönen kring knektforskning till medlemmarna i Stockholmsfänikan. Det var då. 

Men enligt devisen "Allt gott kommer igen" så vet ni att det finns något att vänta på i mörkret. 

Här är en preview utan vidare garantier.

A guide to Swedish clothes (En guide till svenska kläder)

"Ware Swenske."

(Be ye Swedish.)

-Daniel Fallström

Making a 16th Century Swede, or, the clothes of those who fought against and alongside Landsknechts in the North

I have just begun, in the past few months, delving into a new area of deep interest for me, and it's incredible how things have come full-circle for me. My Mother has always been interested in genealogy, and found many of our German and Finnish ancestors having to do with the early history of…

flemish territory and German mercenaries

Hello,





I am in search of texts or of studies on the presence

of the troops or the German mercenaries on the Flemish territory. More exactly,

in a slice (edge) of studies between 1500 and 1600. As for the "  geographical location (localization) " of

my searches(researches), my "reference axis" would be situated rather

between Lille (in France today), Ghent and Turned(Shot) (today in Belgium), it

says in a general way, on the military activities of the…

Rapport från redaktionen

Innanför mediahusets väggar i centrala Nürnberg samlar vi sten och våra reportrar jobbar för högtryck med det femte numret. "För knektar som gjort det mer än 121 gånger".  Vi törs lova ett rejält ansiktslyft mot tidigare nummer, eftersom de gamla redigerarna har fått sparken. 

 

Inom kort kommer viktig information som inte fått plats i papperstidningen att presenteras på den här bloggen.

The start of Reenactment in Sweden, and Reboot of Nationalism

When in 1992 the idea of taking role-play fantasies into live action roleplaying on a national scale was played out through the swedish event "Trenne Byar" [Three Villages] there was no common way to present such an idea. There was no Internet to start with.

But let's not get that far ahead yet...



The concept of "reenactment" was very well known in the parts of Western Europe where national frictions lingered. Long before we got struck with it. Even the young America played…

XVe Waffendrill

Un bien beau baptême pour la nouvelle petite couleuvrine Maximilienne de la batterie Mont-le-Vieux. Elle se nomme Margueritte, ou « Maggy », en l’honneur de la duchesse d’York, dernière épouse de feu notre bon duc et protectrice de l’héritage de Marie de Bourgogne, tout comme notre bien bon comte de Romont.

Aux côtés de la Donzelle, de la Donatella, de l’Isabelle et de la Douce, la Maggy a permit à la batterie d’atteindre le seuil des 1'000 coups en ce printemps 2011.

On the subject of whorehouses, 1543:

Melichior Ambach, editor of biblical, patristic & contemporary writings against whoring & adultery:



If we can have a "house of women" for single and married men to frequent without sin, let us also provide a "house of boys" (Bubenhaus) for our womenfolk, especially for those who are old and poor and have no husband to service them. Would whoring be any worse for the poor, needy female sex?"…
