Funnily enough, the gospel reading for this Sunday is Jesus going up into a pulpit and offending people by speaking on behalf of the poor, the captive and the oppressed (Luke 4:16-30). Looks like I'll be rewriting my sermon!

If you've got a lot of books, by centuries or historical designations (eg medieval, Renaissance, Enlightenment), and then by either alphabetically or chronologically within genres. Unless you specialise in a particular trans-historical topic, in which case, bung them all together (chronologically)

My copy of George Williams' 'The Radical Reformation' had a down-to-up spine title, and it bothered me so much I cut the cover up, placed the spine upside down, then sealed it back up with sticky-backed plastic.

The best thing about rare books is how they smell, imho.

No, it's a day in the church calendar. Got its own liturgy and everything, at least here in the Church of England.
