>There is a review of a book by Ingrid Rowland, *The Culture of the High
>Renaissance:  Ancients and Moderns in Sixteenth-Century Rome* at the NY
>Review of Books site.

>That review quotes Rowland's book on the subject of the Roman Academy,
>which she calls, apparently, "part institute for advanced study, part
>guild for curial humanists, part society for creative anachronism."
>
>In other words, "society for creative anachronism" has become a
>recognizable term and general concept in scholarly discourse.
