Looking forward to introducing another Victorian secularist song as part of the this evening's @c19qmul.bsky.social Carols in Context event. Alongside more familiar pieces, we'll be singing 'Sympathy.' Two verses received Gladstone's own tick of approval in his copy held at @gladlib.bsky.social

Slide with two scanned pages: title page of 'The Secularist's Manual of Songs and Ceremonies' edited by Austin Holyoake and Charles Watts (1871); page with two songs 'Sympathy' and 'Benevolence', each has 4 quatrains. A line with a tick highlights:

Go, bid the hungry orphan be
With thine abundance bless'd;
Invite the wand'rer to thy gate,
And spread the couch of rest.

Let him who pines with piercing cold
By thee be warm'd and clad;
Be thine the blissful task, to make
The downcast mourner glad.

Cracking out my Captain Haddock meme ahead of the start of our semester 2 next week:

Captain Haddock, looking wrecked: What a semester, huh?
Tintin, concerned: Captain, it starts on Monday!
Snowy: *drinks beer*

Among everything else, I forgot to congratulate @anniechapman.bsky.social for winning the Arthur Conan Doyle society's award for the year's best academic work on Doyle, for her article on Doyle, medical authority, and *The Idler*. I was on the panel and it was a very tough competition.

Delighted to receive this award! Thanks to the panel and @acdsociety.bsky.social

So much to love about London Tide. The staging and particularly the lighting design were brilliant. What they chose to include/exclude worked well. That said if you don’t like PJ Harvey you might struggle with it!

Said hello to the Gloucester Candlestick yesterday. Somehow it’s about 11 years since I was thinking about it during my MA. I loved the freedom to think that course afforded me. Happy times

I remember how excited I was by all the options as an undergrad delivered by so many experts, and I wonder what options will be left for my history-loving teen when he gets to that stage
