Additional information

Research for this paper and several others connected with it was made possible by an N.E.H. Summer Stipend. In particular, the insights offered here are the result of an overview which can only be obtained by extended research over a period of time. The grant enabled me to spend that time on research. In addition I benefited enormously from the comments and suggestions of my colleagues at the University of Kentucky, especially Don Howard, Jeff Burkhardt, and Henry Schankula.
