Promotional banner graphic. The book cover for The Medieval Irish Kings and the English Invasion is placed on the left of the image. Next to this on the right, red text on a cream background reads 'Winner Irish Historical Studies First Book Prize 2024'. In the bottom right corner is the LUP logo. The background is taken from the book cover and is a medieval manuscript featuring text and an illustration of men fighting.

"... the narrative is driven by the animosity between two characters – a brother and sister – whose epic hatred for one another gives the novel an almost parable-like quality. Their enmity powers this subtle, darkly powerful tale narrated in poetic language."

Malinowski: A couple of years ago, Vance gave a speech.. The title was universities are the enemy. He said explicitly, we cannot achieve anything in this country as a conservative movement unless we aggressively go after the universities. That's what they're doing right now

Just utter lawlessness from the Trump Administration, with no goal other than to punish institutions for refusing to bend the knee. www.nytimes.com/2025/05/22/u...

Yikes. If we’re hoping to strengthen our post-secondary institutions and support a strong economy, this is not good.
Money to rip out bike lanes and cut gas taxes though.
My beloved friend and mentor David Townsend has started a newsletter to explore the world of Julian of Norwich, in conjunction with his forthcoming novel, The Ram in the Thicket. Please share! 🕯️ #medievalsky

I have Egyptian, Australian, Polish, South African, Canadian, Norwegian, Iranian, Irish and British born neighbours, and we can barely get down the road without having a good old natter.
If that's a Land of Strangers then bring it on.
Just wondering what tests were conducted to check these “refugees’” eligibility as White. Quantum of blood line? Pencil in hair? Genealogical search for any Coloured or Black impurities? Or the old apartheid ‘community’ acceptance.

"... they have established that tin from the abundant deposits in Cornwall and Devon was being widely traded in the Mediterranean more than 3,000 years ago – and may have played a key part in the advances of sophisticated kingdoms and states more than 4,000km (2,485 miles) away."

If we are serious about preserving Canada’s democracy and sovereignty, Canadian institutions need to stop tolerating the intolerant! 👇 Amongst other things, that means blocking X, Rebel and others making $$ from purposefully purveying disinformation and division.

#DragonWeek
Apparently this past week was Dragon Week! Not nearly enough love for Y Ddraig Goch, so here’s an image to fix that. The Welsh dragon has deep roots in the legends of the wizard Merlin, and deserves a lot more credit in fantasy literature than it usually gets.
