@elle_hunt @collin_bjork is your guy!

@AliceWickenden Congrats Alice - and what a great project! I'm currently thinking through something very similar in relation to collections of EM books in Australia/NZ (article forthcoming later this year) - do keep in touch!

Late to the party (thanks ongoing restructure) but here's a wee celebratory post marking the publication last week of the new @OWC_Oxford R&J, with a fresh intro in which I argue (among other things) that Verona might be less fair and more queer than we tend to think...

[Hannah August @TheAugustHannah]

Uncharacteristically speedy post meant my advance copies of this arrived in NZ today. Writing a fresh intro for the @OWC_Oxford R&J was a true delight - heartfelt thanks to Gen. Ed. @OldFortunatus and the team at OUP for your support! Pub. date April 11.

@dnmcinnis Congratulations, David! What an impressive brace of achievements!

Playbooks and their Readers in Early Modern England is now available in paperback, and thanks to Routledge's Black Friday sale (till 1 Dec) is currently ACTUALLY AFFORDABLE: https://t.co/EAE4nyuArg

It's been a mixed year workwise, but a highlight was reviewing the proofs for this: https://t.co/DEorJMR65d. An equal delight to introduce Romeo and Juliet for a new generation, and to work with @OldFortunatus as @OWC_Oxford Gen Ed. Look out for it in April!

Seconding this - what a wonderful opportunity @LondonRareBooks provides to connect with scholars from across the globe and to be energized by their passion and expertise. It was so great to learn more about @DORMEME16's brilliant project!

[DORMEME16 (@dormeme16.bsky) @DORMEME16]

The DORMEME team have experienced an exceptional week studying all things provenance, @LondonRareBooks with the guru himself, David Pearson. What a great opportunity to further our skills whilst meeting likeminded scholars such as @TheAugustHannah. This is why we do what we do!

"As such, it looks far less like a bailout of particular institutions than an admission that the current policy settings are not fit for purpose." @nicgaston nails it again: https://t.co/IrlTv8ZAjA

These sorts of cuts would radically change the profile of VUW and of Wellington as a city - the Theatre programme is a crucial pipeline for the city's arts sector. Solidarity with students and academic staff #saveVUW. https://t.co/cf1nkFMm7T

Typically astute commentary from Nicola Gaston here, including a timely reminder of what the Education Act stipulates NZ universities are & should do: https://t.co/b0JzNjbVOJ

@roaringgirle @upennlib Keeping good shelf company, too!! 😉

[Hannah August @TheAugustHannah]

@OldFortunatus Ooh lucky you! Hopefully I'll see you in Oxford before you go - can catch you up on the work I've been doing on playbooks in Antipodean special collections. Will send you an email!

[Hannah August @TheAugustHannah]

For some Southern Hemisphere-based #folio400 content, here's a blog post I wrote about the Auckland Public Library's First Folio: https://t.co/YixZwaIJA4. Referencing the excellent discussion by @OldFortunatus in The Making of S's FF, of course...

@ClaireMabey asked me to review the new book on Katherine Mansfield by @claire_harman for @TheSpinoffTV, and it was a joyous task: https://t.co/SQxGmBw9Fn.

[Hannah August @TheAugustHannah]

And the book itself is currently 20% off, until the 1st of May! https://t.co/EAE4nyu2BI

[Hannah August @TheAugustHannah]

A year today since the publication of Playbooks and their Readers in Early Modern England! There've been some very kind reviews: @LindseyL_Jones in Shakespeare Quarterly (https://t.co/d8xMVgDXZx) and Jane Rickard in Shakespeare (https://t.co/VuQjdc2qBZ).

[Hannah August @TheAugustHannah]

Contrary to what they say on their website, Routledge WILL send out hard copies for review - if you'd like me to help you get your hands on one, let me know...

[The Arden Shakespeare @Ardenpublisher]

*Now in paperback*

'Shakespeare / Text' edited by @roaringgirle sets new agendas for the study & use of the Shakespearean text. Written by experts on textual matters, each essay challenges the way we read, analyse, teach, perform, & edit Shakespeare.
