Book cover: The Destruction of Medieval Manuscripts in England: Institutional Collections (Oxford University Press)

Just did the final final check of the cover for my book (out in April!).

My niece, age 4, helped me decide on the cover colours and I think she did a great job 😊

Cover of my book! Featuring the title, author, and a photo of two student actors from Royal Holloway College, 1928.

My book is on the OUP website! Its estimated publication date is April 17! Look at this lovely cover! global.oup.com/academic/pro...

Very cool! Would love to see a photo of the preface, if it has one?

The Middle English Dictionary is an invaluable resource. It was started in 1925 & finished in 2001.

Rather than chasing speed & scale at the expense of quality, we need to invest in the long term by funding the skills & slow labor research requires. There’s no future for the humanities otherwise.

‘In the shifting, centuries-long history of his reception, Chaucer has been read as both irreverent and pious, experimental and traditional, cosmopolitan and quintessentially English.’
