rare post but I've got a new bit of fun out.
Hildegard von Bingen in the mid-16thc? In England?? IN FOXE???
(and illuminated. yes. a big jomping enormous manuscript decorated 1540-50s.)
yes. (& TONS more for medievalists to do in Ref lit!)

Popping back to ask here too (and will RT on US timezones)--anyone interested in attending MAA 25 working on manuscript collecting or Warburg or adjacent? Thinking about pulling together a panel for the 1925-2025 thread.

Just heard about this exciting CFS- Different Visions (scholar-led OA art history journal) is filling a special topics issue on The Medieval Via Medievalism, incl scholarly articles, short pieces, memoir, video, even original art--abstracts due 15 Feb! differentvisions.org/medievalism-sp…

So the question is: does anyone CARE about another manuscript copy of More's Instructions and Devout Prayer?

👀 What a lineup! 👀
Mine will be streamed, iirc--so check it out if you want to learn how to find structural gaps in the historical record...it'll be like archival detectoring*!!

*look we can't let the museum archaeologists have all the fun...

That's it for 2023, lads.
In 2024 I'll have articles out on the Masters of the Dark Eyes in England (and Thomas More), Anglo-Italian illumination, and Tudor Hildegard von Bingen.
I did a whole heap of writing in 23, though, and hopefully in 25 and 26 that'll get published too.

For me, this 2023 piece is one of my career highlights-- on the networks within which artists with essential tremor worked, and what that may tell us about impairment, aging, and labor in mid-15thc England. differentvisions.org/aging-artists-…

Artfolks! Occasional check-in here. I see sparky! has set up shop on ko-fi. Fans of MOTH👑MONARCH PERSISTS's work might check it out too. Creators need all our support as this site fails. Follow them here. Follow them there. Follow them everywhere. (And go buy some art!)

Also it looks like I sold a piece on Tudor Hildegard von Bingen. So that's a bit nice. Or at least funny. But also nice.

Any chance it's the Franciscans?

Back over here to block botfarmers atting me and figured that while I'm here I'd ask: so what monastic use employs the Hours of the Trinity? Brigettines made use of Hrs of Holy Spirit, so who's praying the Trinity Hrs?
