Why Serendipity?\\
“Horace Walpole (1717-1797) coined the word ‘serendipity,’ giving one word for
‘the gift of finding valuable or agreeable things not sought for.’ The name comes
from the fairy tale The Three Princes of Serendip. These three young men from
Serendip (or Ceylon) traveled and discovered things that they were not looking for
but that turned out to be of value to them.
A version of this 5 century AD story was published in 1557 in Italian. In 1721, a
French version was printed in Amsterdam, and in 1722 an English version was
printed in London.” --Al Herman
