Lexicon: A Legend of Words

A lexicon is a dictionary, but it's also defined as a 'legend of words', which I like a lot better. Legends can be stories, and they're also found on maps - the latter factual, the former true, or true-ish.

Here, you can read back issues of 'The Amphora' by clicking on the links below. They are, lexiconically speaking, my current definition of things. I'm interested in knowing your definition of things. Email me at elaine@elainestirling.com.
