C'est @adamfleming qui va être content! J'ai l'impression que j'ai juste entendu son nom prononcé avec l'accent britannique d'Adam en écoutant Brexitcast sur @BBCSounds... 😃

It was Sophie Defrance (@Libriul)!
She wrote her 2008 Cambridge dissertation on 19th-century textbooks for girls in England and France!
Sophie (dunno her last name) suggested that Karima Gaci look into the educational press to see how textbook authors were pitching their method to educators
I plugged @sikandar_bubb's new project on Victorian periodicals teaching languages, starting w/ 🇫🇷

Libri described the copy as containing annotations in Kepler's own handwriting, but is that true?
Should we believe Libri the renowned paleographer or Libri the forger?

I adored @ladydothpaints's presentation of this mystery, especially the fact that she specifically labelled who took the scans she was showing in her slides.
I will let her share on here the questions she is left with if she thinks this is a good forum, incl. a coat of arms!

Next up: @alextheknitter on her own model of transmission based on her review of 41 models (25 from book history and 16 from information and library science)

And when @LKFiss asks about performance because of her research on musical theatre, @alextheknitter clarifies that orality is beyond the scope of her model since "information" is pretty broad, so she needed to narrow it down...

Here's where I am!
@yuri_c_anjos is up next, talking about handwriting manuals in 19th-century France, an untapped source to understand how handwriting was viewed in a world of print.
I'm now going to look at the pretty title pages 🙂

Oups, followed the wrong thread...

I'm surprised to see 2 books printed in Strasbourg on @yuri_c_anjos's slide containing 3 title pages!
He explains that that's where Arnold Berliner, calligraphy teacher, was based!
Here's an example of his works from @GallicaBnF: gallica.bnf.fr/ark:/12148/bp…

I'm at the @britishlibrary for a seminar on textual bibliography for modern foreign languages.
Really interesting: Karima Gaci (@UniversityLeeds) tried in her PhD to find solutions to teaching French verb-related grammar now in past textbooks!
Spoiler: she couldn't...

Can anyone help @yuri_c_anjos search the *Bibliographie de la France*? wants to compare what it lists as being published w/ what was preserved at @laBnF
Throwing in another wrench: David Bellos's article about how the *Bibliographie* is itself incomplete doi.org/10.1093/library/s5-X…
