@commish24 Wait, nope. Can’t DM you. Due to some Brandeis upheaval, we’ve decided to postpone again to September. Organizers are working on a letter now to send out to everyone ASAP.

Johanna Green, July 21st 1983-July 20th 2023.

It is with heavy hearts we mourn the loss of an exceptional teacher, scholar, and friend. Johanna's legacy will forever live on in the hearts of those she touched.

3️⃣ Finally, on the same folio: answers on a postcard to the gloss here! It's glossing 'besche' (a kind of tool for digging) in a comparative phrase.

[Learning Anglo-French @medievalfrench]

2️⃣ On fol. 5v, we have an English gloss to 'espreche' ['stretch'] that looks very similar to the French, but it doesn't appear to be attested in the MED. (Context: 'Apres dormer il se espreche' / 'After sleeping, he stretches out')

[Learning Anglo-French @medievalfrench]

1️⃣ Our first is from fol. 5r, glossing the French 'derechef' ['once again '] in the line 'Tachez vos botouns, et pur derechef' ['Do up your buttons, and once again ...']. The context, as you may guess, is that the imagined student is heading outside!

[Learning Anglo-French @medievalfrench]

Middle English fans: we need your help! We're working with a particularly tricky manuscript of Bibbesworth's 'Tretiz' - @BLMedieval, MS Harley 740 - and have a couple of glosses to the French text that are eluding our attempts at deciphering them. Suggestions? Thread below ... ⬇️

Do you know someone working on Early Middle English?? #MedievalTwitter https://t.co/K3qwYrUHBj

[Hopkins Press @JHUPress]

A book historian used micro-computed x-ray tomography to examine the interior binding of a medieval book. What he found there surprised him. New on the blog: an interview with @jdsargan on "The Ghosts of Bindings Past" from the latest @DigitalPhilolo1: https://t.co/UzeODtdcaz
