Had great fun talking yesterday about languages, politics and Celticity of Interceltique de Lorient in our seminar. This year's experience was amazing!

Today our students had to endure the tortures of defining 'Celtic' - and having mentioned Celtic crosses, I went out later to search for a Celtic cross in the cemetery across the road from my office. And there it was, quite impressive - dedicated to a well-known Irishman of the 19th century

Heuneburg field trip with our students. Sooo impressive!

Am ddridiau arbennig – llawn o ddysg, dathlu a chofio, a llawer o hwyl! Diolch i bawb yn @yganolfangeltaidd.bsky.social – a phen blwydd happys/hapus! Three glorious days – full of learning, celebration and remembering, and lots of fun! Huge thanks to all at the Canolfan and many happy returns!

I could not resist the temptation to co-organize a workshop at the Freie Universität, even if doing so less than in a week after the conference in Bonn is a clear symptom of madness. And I really loved it – but it had to be a very short visit, so no interaction beside that with colleagues and a cat

Still struggling to find coherent words to report about the Fourth European Symposium in Celtic Studies - meanwhile only endless gratitude to the team, thankfulness to all the colleagues who came and made it such a wonderful new milestone in the history of Celtic Studies in Bonn!

Breaking news! @ninacnock.bsky.social just won the Johann-Kaspar-Zeuß-Price of the Societas Celtologica Europaea for the best PhD thesis! Congratulations!

The Fourth European Symposium in Celtic Studies starts tomorrow! So much looking forward to welcome all the wonderful scholars @cgschweizer.bsky.social @bernhardbaver.bsky.social @ninacnock.bsky.social @metamedievalist.bsky.social @medievalireland.bsky.social and a lot of others!

Roedd hi’n fraint siarad â Dei Tomos ar BBC Cymru am fy hoff gerdd Gymraeg, “Ciwcymbars Wolverhampton” gan Ifor ap Glyn. Yn ôl pob tebyg, roedd fy fersiwn i’n eithaf Rwsiaidd – fel fy nghiwcymbars newydd wedi’u halltu – ond roedd hi’n llawer o hwyl siarad amdani!

It was a true privilege to host these two talks by the two Welsh legends

Another year, another wonderful excursion to #Glauberg organized by the Celtic Studies students association of the Uni Bonn

Looking forward for another term at the Bonn+Marburg Celtic Seminar online - with Natalia Petrovskaia,
@michael-hornsby.bsky.social, Jon Morris, Joe Eska, and Elisabeth Chatel!

Celebrated St Patrick's Day by watching a wonderful new documentary on @artede.bsky.social. Great contributions by @niamhwycherley.bsky.social and @elvabjohnston.bsky.social among the others - comhghairdeachas! #LáFhéilePádraig #StPatricksDay

Feeling so grateful for having in front of me this publication in such a wonderful co-authorship. This is the first book with my name as co-author, not co-editor, on the cover, so this is quite a special moment for me - and definitely some dreams coming true.

The deadline for abstracts is 28th February.
Any questions can be addressed to escs4@uni-bonn.de.
We look forward to receiving your contributions!
