Thanks @alanstewart50.bsky.social for his paper this evening on “The Maxims” of Francis Bacon. As Bacon’s editor, Alan’s survey of the manuscript and printed versions of this work, and the potential dedications to monarchs, made for a fascinating discussion.

Thanks to @fabiociambella.bsky.social for a fabulous talk this evening about the Old Measures at the Inns of Court, and links between dance and early modern drama. Many people working in dance history might find his work on OMIC useful (clare.dlls.univr.it/omic/).
