My dearest friend (and academic child) Sidney drew me as Anne Boleyn and my heart it so full 🖤 – at Saint Andrews, Scotland

Great news from the wonderful folks behind Project Fergusson @RFergussonPoet, who've worked with @PressTaproot to produce this beauty! Very honoured to have contributed 'The Last Tavern', a Dantesque encounter between Burns and Fergusson, and to be put with such amazing company!
🪶We're thrilled to announce 'O'er a' my labours sey your skill: Poetic Responses to Robert Fergusson. Across Scots, English and Gaelic, a wealth of contemporary poets respond to Fergusson's work, proving that, 250 years since his death, his song immortal lives! @PressTaproot

If I could do so again, I would vote for Callum as PGR President. I have seen firsthand all the hard work he has put into making sure PGRs’ concerns are heard, even when very few wanted to hear. He was always there, ‘in the room where it happens’, fighting hard…
Any St Andrews PGRs (@StLeonards_PGs) — voting is now open for your postgrad reps at this link: elections.st-andrews.ac.uk
Please do consider re-electing me as your PGR President!

Had the most wonderful evening with the Intersections concert on Thursday! Thank you so much to @RCStweets and @StAndrewsMusic for organising this, and to Jake Davey, Lizzie Gange, and Alex South for making my research into something beautiful! 📚 🎶
Replying to @CRFIrvine
I've been fortunate enough to have Jake Davey sit and listen to me gab about my research on Lateness and Late Style, and, a little while later, be met with a fantastic-looking score of Lateness-influenced music to be premiered on Thursday evening alongside several others!

Come and join the excellent panellists at the #CLiCToExit Symposium today (and then myself, presenting about 11am)!
Here's the link to the abstracts and bios: sway.office.com/JtOWxSRH0UHD…
And the programme and Teams links! onedrive.live.com/view.aspx?…
It’s what I do.
And then, apparently, I walk out of the lecture hall, fall, and break my right arm.
There is something truly iconic about @BeheadingDoctor lecturing, having translated @Hozier into Old English for the students.

This is a short-sighted decision that places a high-performing, unique centre of MEMS research in Australia under threat of extinction. Please like & retweet @mcassidywelch's post & most importantly, follow her advice on who to email your protests to. Be noisy #medievaltwitter!

The British Academy today responds to proposals to limit the number of students taking so-called "low-value" degrees in England. The Academy has long argued that graduate destinations and salaries alone are limited proxies for the value of higher education

We discovered Thomas Cromwell’s Book of Hours…and it’s the book painted on Cromwell’s desk by Hans Holbein the Younger in his famous portrait of Cromwell!! @hevercastle @DrOwenEmmerson

We’ve found the Book of Hours captured by Holbein in his famous portrait of #ThomasCromwell! Cromwell’s book is one of the few objects depicted in a Tudor portrait to survive. @TracyBorman has dubbed it “the most exciting Cromwell discovery in a generation - if not more.”
This looks amazing! I wish I could be there in person, but I will definitely be there online!
