"The Knights Next Door" is a great new book about the SCA from iUniverse, Inc.
No list of SCAdian-interest movies would be complete without a thorough review of Shakepearean and Marlowean films. William Shakepeare and Christopher Marlowe were contemporaries who wrote during the tail end of the SCAdian period (well, there is some debate as to whether plays after 1600 count as "period" for the SCA, but that's another topic), and their plays subsequently reflect period views and use period language. However, many of their plays are set in an earlier period, making "historically accurate" versions difficult (cannons in Hamlet's castle? A pistol at Shrewsbury? A striking clock in Ancient Rome?). But this doesn't stop folks from trying, and sometimes encourages them to throw historical authenticity to the winds and create versions that reflect a certain theme or point of view.
