Shocked to find that my institution has blocked access to the @archive.org this morning. Lodging an IT ticket and very, very curious to know the justification. @archive.org is essential for my research and teaching, and I cannot be the only person at @openresleeds.bsky.social affected by this.

Striking while the iron is hot, we wrote a piece for The Conversation #earlymodern theconversation.com/who-called-s...
Who called Shakespeare ‘upstart

Latest #earlymodern linoprint, this time from Robert Greene's cony-catching pamphlet of 1592. I'll have several of these and other prints with me at the @dreditions.bsky.social table next week for SAA/RSA in Boston.

Latest #earlymodern linocut is a detail of Robert Greene in his winding sheet. Prints in black and gold. Which do you prefer, @oldfortunatus.bsky.social ?
