Membership
means you will:
Before you joined Regia, you may have decided whether you wanted to participate in military or civilian life, or both. You are free to do whatever you choose, and as time goes by you will find more and more to interest you. It may be a cliché, but it is true that you will get out of Regia what you decide to put in.
Although Regia is about the past, there are always plans for the future.
Some dreamt of a permanent site, to recreate a complete image of life as it was; others longed to lead a charge of horses on Senlac Ridge. With hard work and imagination we are making these and many other things possible!
But more importantly, Regia Anglorum is not only about crafts and history and combat, it’s about making friends. It won’t be long before you are sitting around a campfire, telling tall tales of your exploits on the battlefield and maybe hearing a story or two from long ago. Who knows? Maybe at the campfire, looking up from sewing a shoe, or peering across the shield’s rim at an unknown foe, the thought will come to you unbidden - as it does to all of us - “It must have been just like this...”
This is why we have become one of the country’s leading and most well respected Living History Societies.
The
society produces a number of publications. We have two journal type publications; "Chronicle" and "Clamavi".
These are posted direct to every member of the society. "Chronicle" is
published a few times during the year. Running to nearly fifty high quality
A4 pages per edition, "Chronicle" contains
articles, book reviews, pictures and comment from both within the society and
from external contributors. "Chronicle" is an efficient organ of
communication, keeping our members well informed about upcoming events and
normally containing event information and maps some time before the show. "Clamavi" is
a more informal publication that appears when necessary and fills in the gaps
between Chronicles.
The society is currently producing a new handbook for the members. This will replace the existing handbook that is over 10 years old. This will be published over the next few years in a number of fascicules (or sections). The first two were published at the beginning of 2004.
The society operates one of the most popular and referenced web sites relating
to our period of interest. This is an ever growing source of information, both
for those with an interest in the period and our members.
OK
- so you are now thinking that this could be for me. What do I do next? How
do I go about joining Regia Anglorum. Follow me to the
last page of this section to find out more; or return to the membership
menu.
For the very best in early medieval re-creation, you need look no further than Regia Anglorum.
