Wat Latijnliefhebbers, -studenten en -docenten al jaren proberen duidelijk te maken: het nutsargument is niet van toepassing op Latijn. Dat is niet de schuld van het Latijn, wél van onze maatschappelijke obsessie met 'nut'. 🧵https://www.standaard.be/cnt/dmf20241125_96321943
Je wordt niet extra slim als je Latijn studeert: “Moeten verwachtingen van de richting bijschaven”
Wie later dokter wil worden, studeert maar beter Latijn in het middelbaar, klinkt het nog vaak. Maar dat je van Latijn extra slim wordt, blijkt in de praktijk moeilijk hard te maken. Dat blijkt uit een nieuw grootschalig onderzoek bij 1.700 leerlingen.

It’s #WorldPrematurityDay and a great time to re-share my essay on how one of my favorite #earlymodern poets helped me through my second NICU stay. Honored to have it chosen for the Nursing Clio Reader, out in September from Rutgers! Thanks to @nursingclio.bsky.social for giving my words a home.
How My Postpartum Guilt Was Healed by a 17th-Century Poet
Both of my children were born too soon. My son was twelve weeks premature, and my daughter arrived ten weeks early. Twice, I tried to will my body not to go into labor. Twice, I delivered a baby un…

I've published about Argentinian subsidies for translation, arguing that this type of state support plays a crucial role in diversifying the literary field 📚📖✨

Hello! I'm a PhD researcher in Argentinian literature and translation. I'm intrigued by the interaction between Latin American women's writing, narratives about violence, and the transnational book market 👀.
