I find it very charming that TCD Classics are advertising an Ass. Prof. in Roman History, Culture & Society with the image of an inscription in Gaulish (RIG L-29.1). Does this mean that Gaulish Studies will see a major institutional boost in the near future?

No one has anything to fear from Irish!
I'm often asked how I learned Irish. And why I did so as a Unionist. This little video, in Irish with English subtitles, gives an insight into my views on a beautiful language we all - often unknowingly - share and use every day.

Super enjoyable chat w/Prof Stacey. We discuss social theorising, how useful the study of laws can be to the historian, & how astonishing it is that the Irish material, the most extensive in early medieval western Europe, is generally ignored outside of Ireland. #medievaltwitter

New ep out now! Prof. Robin Chapman Stacey, one of the leading experts in the field, tells us about medieval Ireland's remarkable legal system & huge range of law texts, covering topics from gender and status to what happens when you get stung by a bee! open.spotify.com/episode/4qjGwH…
