Sanitation workers are heroes! Trash pick up around mountains of snow is no joke! Especially in this cold.

Blessings, on blessings, on blessings to the neighbor who cleared the sidewalk ALL the way to the curb. Walking in the snow and ice with one leg still healing is hard. I was so grateful for a safe path this 🥶 morning!

Last post for the year to say that @jcblibrary.bsky.social we've been thinking hard about how to support scholars and scholarship amidst the multi-dimensional crises for humanities research.

Friends!!! You know how obsessed I have become with Common Sense.

Tom Paine published that pamphlet 250 years ago this January. I published an essay about it TODAY, in the New York Times. Common Sense remains relevant as ever.

I hope you enjoy it. Gift article ⬇️⬇️⬇️

And then by virtue of @triciamatthew.bsky.social 's Race and Regency Lab, we connected a recent acquisition of a plantation map--a plantation owned by Jane's father's cousin --to the work of archival recoveries. Read the post and the links and Tricia's scholarship! 5/ jcblibrary.org/news/race-an...

Today is Austen’s birthday!

I’ve been thinking (a lot) about my place in the Austen250 commemorations. The “how it started” vs. “how it’s going” of it all.
