Something special at Leeds: the surprise discovery of a Wyclif manuscript at Merton College, where he was a grad student in the 1350s! Gigi Campi can’t make it, so the other talks will be less compressed. Jordan Lavender’s will be about his discovery; mine will be more general. #IMC2025 #medievalSky

🎯 V dětství se Tomáš Čermák nedíval lidem do očí a neuměl s nimi navazovat vztahy, skoro tři roky strávil v nemocnici. Od té doby ale ušel kus cesty.

Did you know that the DS Catalog is powered by Wikibase technology? This is the same Linked Open Data software that Wikidata, one of the world’s largest open knowledge bases, runs on.

You can even explore the "backend" Wikibase of the DS Catalog infrastructure: catalog.digital-scriptorium.org
