The Lollard Society is closing out the first day of @imc-leeds.bsky.social with a rousing session, "Lollard Knights and Rebels."

Join Maureen Jurkowski, Rob Lutton, and me for fifteenth-century rebels, testamentary lollards, and a fresh look at the devotion of Chaucer's friends and literary peers.
