A joyous event tonight: A celebration (in many timezones) of a new festschrift in honour of the wonderful Prof Elizabeth A R Brown with lots of friends
Peggy is a mentor & a hero to so many of us, and it was an honour to raise a glass to her tonight

A blessing of an ancient oak in the forest of Bercé. This will be one of thousands of trees – all over 2 centuries old and measuring over 1 meter in diameter – used to reconstruct the spire of Notre-Dame de Paris ❤️

It’s not possible to unite with people who want to overthrow our government.
No unity without accountability.
Pass it on.

Since it appears GOP leaders need a reminder:
There is no “healing” from this without accountability.
And there is no “unity” with white supremacists.
You know the President’s state has devolved dangerously. If you’re too weak to do anything about it, you’re too weak to serve.
Starting a year of research leave! Question of the day for medievalist: any recommendations for newer bibliography on Rutebeuf?
