The French philosopher Michel de #Montaigne died #OTD in 1592. We have a number of books once in his own library, including three bequeathed to him by his close friend Etienne de la Boétie: Strabo 1549, Terence 1542 & Appian 1543 (note the ‘b’ in upper left of TPs). (1/2)

@PenguinUKBooks Perhaps consider donating to provide children with books instead, given that a lot of families are probably cutting back on non-essentials: https://t.co/jxVkIHOZOO

In the Middle Ages people believed that the movements of the stars and planets influenced the human body, so astrology was an important part of medicine.

This ‘Zodiac man’ shows which signs of the Zodiac supposedly govern particular parts of the body ♈️

Today was the most inspirational day @QuotationBank offices! We had wonderful conversations about massively expanding our GCSE and A-level English Literature support this term, and helping young people grow in their love of literature. We can’t wait! #TeamEnglish #LitdriveUK
