Bound to be fantastic!
Tomorrow’s the first day of my grad seminar for @utaustin.bsky.social English, How to Read an Old Book, 1450–1830.
Just finished stitching up my syllabuses, which we’ll spend quite a bit of time with—as bibliographical objects—for the first half or so of the term.

This is such a lovely, generous example of an editor providing a roadmap of possibilities for contributors. I would love to see this replicated in other journals, though I doubt they could match its eloquence.

This. It was crucial during a swotting incident on our campus. Sending all kinds of strength to colleagues at Brown
I do this every single semester. I take my phone to the bathroom in case I need to call my loved ones. I was tenured and i've never known a time before Columbine.
Each semester I go in my classroom and I try to figure out what we would use to block the doors, if it would be safe to crawl out the windows, where we could hide if there was a mass shooter in campus. It’s such an indictment of this country how we have normalized these preventable tragedies.

This year is the 400th anniversary of the death of Sofonisba, but ‘it seems that not a single exhibition is being held to mark the occasion. So, if you want to see Sofonisba’s paintings, you will have to do a good deal of travelling and pick them off one by one.’ Nick Trend provides an itinerary
In search of Sofonisba
The 400th anniversary of the death of an artist who was hugely acclaimed in her lifetime is going mainly unmarked by museums – which means that devotees have their work cut out to see her paintings…

Love, love, love this from @nsousanis.bsky.social It speaks to so many of the ways tech has tried to unsuccessfully and reductively mediate some of the greatest parts about being human: learning, relationships, living
Had 1st encounter with Ai-generated work from Ss - in what was otherwise beautiful & inspiring work from class overall, these were clearly not their words on lone writing part of 3 part midterm (tiny essay/letter) - so upsetting, a violation. Talked in class of how it robs them of learning. A loss…
