is absolutely delighted to be here for her third Marco MSS Workshop here in Knoxville TN. Marco Institute #marcomss

Anthony John Lappin, whom I appear to be following around the conference circuit in various delightful venues, is up first on 'Explicits, colophons and knowing when to stop' from a medieval Spanish perspective. Marco Institute #marcomss

The best thing about these workshops (aside from the hospitality and warm welcome and seeing old friends) is the opportunity to discover new things from the common perspective of manuscript culture. #marcomss Marco Institute

As if all this is not enough, we also visit the Visions of the End exhibition, just opened at the McClung Museum, starring manuscripts featuring the Apocalypse, most appropriate for those of us staring down the barrel of Brexit later today. Marco Institute #marcomss

Roy Liuzza's introduction to the latest in the series of workshops he began fifteen years ago. #marcomss Marco Institute

mcclungmuseum.utk.edu/exhibitions/vi… Look, everyone. This is what we'll be seeing this afternoon! #marcomss Marco Institute

Some pictures of what we can expect. Ooh.

#marcomss Marco Institute Now Sara Torres on 'Contemporaneity and inscriptions at the ends of late medieval English pedigree rolls'. These are such interesting texts.

We are still discussing these fabulous rolls following up on Sara Torres's stimulating talk, a great opportunity for sharing knowledge, just like these beasties chatting away on Royal 14 B. VI (genealogical roll of final quarter of the 13c).

After our lunch break, we now have William Campbell (U of Pittsburgh at Greensburg) on the destruction and preservation of medieval texts at St Davids in the 16c-19c. Marco Institute #marcomss

Following an excellent and fun evening in great company, we are back this morning to hear Joshua Mugler with the title 'The beginnings of a new church in the ends of its manuscripts: the earliest Syriac Catholics of Mosul'. #marcomss Marco Institute

We now have Bradley Phillis, talking about 'Reframing the end: revision and the Crusades in a twelfth-century Flemish book'. #marcomss Marco Institute

It's been a great conference, but these final two sessions are particularly exciting for me. Teresa Hooper is working on a series of texts close to my heart from Bury St Edmunds in CCCO 197. And now Brian O'Camb is talking about his exciting proverbs project. :D Marco Institute

#UofGEnglishLang mammoth virtual turnout to celebrate my friend and colleague Jeremy Smith's wonderful new book, Transforming Early English. My author-signed copy! PROUD.

Great news about this wonderful scholar and my pal, Richard.

Very strong start to #ICOME2022 here in Glasgow in an opening plenary by our very own Jeremy Smith and an excellent paper from Ad Putter on Dutch influence on the language of Caxton. Now I've had to go and do less interesting things for a bit, but great to see so many pals here.
