CourtFool Posted June 10, 2004 Report Share Posted June 10, 2004 Re: men in turakian age I am not sure that would be allowed since it would reprinting information directly out of The Turakian Age. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
trechriron Posted June 10, 2004 Report Share Posted June 10, 2004 Re: men in turakian age Not to mention that the book includes great descriptions and actual pictures of said people in their native garb. You should get the book, it is well worth the price. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can always (and I do mean always) paraphrase. Besides, I doubt the person who asked really expected whole passages copied from the book as an answer. A sentence summarizing each type would surely be enough to hold her over until she has a chance to read the actual book. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A better way to do it would be to give out page references. You;d still need the book to see it, but it would helkp you know where to look.

Including page references with the answer is always helpful. I find myself wondering what the answer is, as well (I do not own the book, obviously). Does anyone out there actually know the answer?

Barwickian Posted June 11, 2004 Report Share Posted June 11, 2004 Re: men in turakian age Does anyone out there actually know the answer? Yes, I do. The relevant information and illustrations are on TA p28-30. And I think I can paraphrase without copying. Westerlanders seem to me to have the general appearance and dress of late medieval western Europeans. Mhorecians dress similarly to western Europeans, but are slightly darker skinned - perhaps the medieval Spanish Christian kingdoms are the inspiration. Khorians remind me somewhat of ancient Persians. Vornakkians are similar. The Thunese put me in mind of Melniboneans - and not just for their appearance, but for their culture as well. Indusharans remind me of northern Indians/Pakistanis. Kumasians may be a blend of several other races, most of whom regard them as exotic and attractive. Obviously, there's much more detail in the book. I highly recommend getting a copy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
