Are there interesting texts or versions of texts you've only been able to access via dissertations or the manuscript copy itself? Let us know your ME pastoralia/ devotionalia, and make your own impact on what we think of as a 21st C Horstmann Yorkshire Writers.
But wait! We have a little request for #medievaltwitter - what would YOU like to see in our anthology of late medieval devotional writing? Do you have a text in mind that has been grossly overlooked, just waiting for its moment to shine? Please get in touch!

We hope the good people of #SanFrancisco will forgive us for adapting a song about their city in 1967 to address the shocking and tragic events in #Minnesota in recent weeks. This is dedicated to Renée Good and Alex Pretti, and in solidarity. Our version is called "Minnesota" ❤️

some fantastic projects on offer here! im particularly taken by “remaking history” and the opportunity it offers to look into the interpolation between romance and history (if only one could do 2 PhDs at once…that would fulfil total self hatred)
This is the day! New projects available now on komldsp.org.uk/projects/ for five lucky future PhDs. Four projects will be based at Kent while one at King's. Waste no time and check them out as they are set to begin in the autumn of 2025 #phd #cfa #callforapplication #komldsp
