thrilled (!!) to have heard yesterday that I have been awarded an AHRC studentship by @CHASE_DTP to fund my PhD at the Courtauld beginning this Autumn, researching Antiquarianism, the Fine Arts and Protestant Identity in Ireland 1770-1801
So pleased to share our latest project blog post @ChaucerCommode @unibern on the recent @bodleianlibs ‘Chaucer Here and Now’ exhibition, to which 2 of our @snsf_ch project team members contributed!
New blog post up! Some reflections on the recent @bodleianlibs exhibition, "Chaucer Here and Now," which featured comics by our PhD researcher @hellomizk and contributions from postdoc @lcyflmng. & where there are COMMode people, there's obscenity too! commode.hypotheses.org/846
It was a real joy to have more space to write in response to the scrapbooks - watch this space! Some of the articles for the cluster are already available as 'online first' pieces. Take a look here: link.springer.com/journal/41280/…
Proofs part 2 have come through today for @postmedieval Issue 15.2! I was really delighted to be asked to write an 'About the Cover Text' & that @EdMorganTrust & @UofGlasgowASC were very generous in granting permission for one of Edwin Morgan's scrapbook page-spreads to feature..
Sneak peek/first look now online of mine and @HJP_Armstrong’s essay cluster in @postmedieval! “Medieval Forgeries / Forging the Medieval” - you can read our Intro open access below. It was so fun to write & work on this! Full cluster coming c. June 2024. link.springer.com/article/10.105…
@RebeccaMenmuir Many thanks Rebecca — the contributors did all the heavy lifting, so all the plaudits are theirs!
I am delighted to be starting as a Postdoctoral Research Fellow tomorrow @EURONEWSproject with @BrendanDooley & @stefanovil - I will work (more) on Amerigo Salvetti (1572-1657) & Giovanni Salvetti Antelminelli (1636-1716), Florentine residents in London, focussing on c.1640-1660
If you are in Cambridge, please pop in for my lunchtime talk tomorrow, "Chess as Cross-Cultural Encounter in the Libro de axedrez (1283)" at the Medieval Encounters Seminar ---> 1 May, Wednesday, 1-2pm, Ramsden Room @Catz_Cambridge @Cambridge_Uni. All are welcome!
A pandemic & various other Incidents of Note might have intervened, but this collection will soon be out! We were very fortunate to work with so many brilliant, kind and patient scholars, all of whose praises I will sing in more detail anon. cambridge.org/core/books/eur…
@Pseudo_Isidore Yes, it was certainly more disturbing to find the below Wikipedia shocker about Wyclif in a review of a book about Wyclif, though the reviewer himself wasn’t a specialist. What the two cases have in common is credulity in the face of the obviously dubious. x.com/brunellus/stat…
According to a recent review of the book linked below, Wyclif was "of Jewish origin" (de origen judío). This bizarre claim can be traced to an anonymous addition to his Spanish Wikipedia entry that escaped correction for 2 years. Verb sap. #medievaltwitter doi.org/10.1484/M.TEMA…
This is where I grew up. It is indeed beautiful. Haven’t been back in about 20 years. Maybe time for a visit?

Yesterday was my favourite weekday: The Body and the Book day! This week's theme was 'growth' (books as friends, eating books & books leaving home) feat. Margaret Cavendish, Geoffrey Chaucer, Edmund Spencer & Anne Bradstreet (Image: Oliver Jeffers,The Incredible Book Eating Boy)
Five years ago, an anonymous Wikipedian made their sole contribution: the claim that Emperor Henry II was also known as St Henry “the Exuberant”. This can now be found in at least 6 books, including three by academics and one by a monk. google.com/search?q=%22he… #medievalTwitter

Hey man just wanted to let you know how much I enjoyed opening your recent article in a new tab
I'm leading a workshop tomorrow for PGRs on Careers after the PhD (academic and otherwise). Does anyone in hindsight have a golden piece of advice they were given (or wish they were given) that made all the difference for them?
@maregan_le_fay *You* are the only non-renewable resource! Professional opportunities come and go; your mental and physical health should always be your priority. Also, 'what you're good at', 'what you're praised for', and 'what you enjoy' are three distinct things worth untangling.
I'm reading about medieval Gaelic personal names and apparently the name BEAN is a diminutive or pet form of MACBETH. Which has frankly huge implications for Shakespeare and Mr Bean.
Just heard that next month's @LondonRareBooks course on 'Fakes and Forgeries' is now fully booked! We're going to be looking at some fairly wild material...
