Apparently our one big snow of the season has arrived. Sitting in a warm room reading Early Modern records with this view outside is a pretty great way to spend a Sunday!

Favourite quote from my research on Carthusian book production as devotional practice, from a 15th c. letter from Peter the Venerable to Guigo I: “Send us, if you please, the larger volume of St. Augustine’s letters, for a large part of ours has been accidentally eaten by a bear.”
