#britcult2025 on queering religion, menstruation and literary reception; on being haunted by the ghosts of our past and taking strength in community for what lies ahead of us; on reading reparatively and listening to each other - thank you so much to everyone for these past 2 days!

Soldier F found not guilty of murder on Bloody Sunday. What can one expect when the British state doesn’t adequately investigate at the time, blames the dead for their murders, drags out justice processes for >50 years and then imposes a legacy act. Ensures this outcome www.rte.ie/news/ulster/...

Listening to a lady from Yorkshire talk about a play: "oh lordy, we were so close and we were just like, oh crikey, audience participation" but when she came out of the play she was "gobsmacked" by how much she liked it 😄 #theatre

Good insights into maintaining friendships by being forgiving of unresponsiveness, and how loneliness impacts negatively on our health.

Ich weiß, den Entscheidern in unseren Mainstream-Medien ist das völlig egal, aber wir werden trotzdem nicht müde, die Fakten zu wiederholen: Eine brandneue Studie hat gezeigt, was schon etliche davor gezeigt haben: Rechtsextreme zu interviewen steigert Rechtsextremismus. WANN LERNT IHR ES ENDLICH!

"A play is not ONLY its themes and supposed “content” but its shape, its sound, its rhythm, its music, its playfulness (…) Immediacy (see Anna Kornbluh’s book on this) is the presentism trap in which society has fallen in this stage of accelerated lazy capitalism in the West."
"there's no healing that can occur in spaces where harm is being sold as repair."

Creative strategies to get students into reading - I will definitely try these, students often love a book *after* they’ve read it but to get them excited about the process is often difficult!
#teaching #EnglishLit #reading
Here you go! I'll write some new ones for this semester too. They loved them. The "read without your phone or screens in the room" was a revelation, and many of them decided to keep doing it. They had NO IDEA (& were horrified) how often they interrupt themselves to look at a phone for no reason.
