Which is either a a recommendation or a warning. have to say I find
quite a number of Borski's interpretations more than somewhat fanciful.
Was intending to ask about this on list but Tim got in there ahead of
me - making me wonder if there might be a 'consensus' regarding Borski
... if he's on this list I have missed him, Ohai Robert if you're out
there, I have read your stuff with huge amounts of interest but also
some skepticism!<br>

As usual modifying the header because if I don't I will not receive my
post on list or otherwise, stoopid ISP :)<br>

Wait a minute now. Severian goes out of his way to heal the girl in *Sword
of the Lictor*. That was an unusual display of compassion/interest for
Severian, and we've only routinely seen him so interest in women for one
reason. So Severian is himself Inire.
And healing a young girl who was head/near-dying is pretty much a direct
reference to the Talitha cumi incident. So Severian is Inire and Jesus as
well. And Lewis Carroll. (Note--Talitha cumi, or Talitha cum*aean*? The
pun is a bit too on-the-nose. Maybe the Cumaean is also the girl Severian
raised, through time travel? Sure, one's a girl and one's a...snaky thing,
but given the Tzadkiel precedent and the abundance of masks I feel this is a
valid possibility.)
Now, there was also an X-Files episode called Talitha Cumi, but unless Gene
himself is time-travelling (which I suppose we can't rule out, given
*Peace*)
I doubt it could have any connection to the Book of the New Sun, despite the
character who heals people miraculously, the concealed identities, the
hidden aliens, and the missing family members. Actually, maybe I need to
check *Peace *out again...
