Poster for a lecture by me on "The Fragmentary History of the Book: Insights from Remnants of Medieval Manuscripts" on 11 April 2025 at the University of Gdańsk, featuring a detail from Lawrence, KS, University of Kansas, Kenneth Spencer Research Library, MS E282 which shows fragments from a parchment manuscript repurposed as separate sewing guards and primary tackets in another fifteenth-century paper manuscript.
I am at the University of Gdańsk and having the best time talking about #manuscriptstudies #digitalhumanities #bookhistory and #fragments! Grateful for the invitation by @emijami.bsky.social! ♥️📚💻 + It's snowing and there's a flamingo statue in front of the Faculty of History building!🦩

I am so sorry Leonie that you and your colleagues have to experience that. The whole "HE UK" is one great expercise in self-destruction, cruelty and pointlessness for totally unclear outcome. Sending all my good wishes and thought although all our good intentions and words make no difference.

Anti-Putin does not mean anti-imperial. Why the romanticisation of Russian dissidents is misleading
In the German debate on the Russian anti-Putin camp, the problematic aspects of this milieu are often ignored. The Russian perspective continues to be prioritized other those of the colonized.
Today's "Anti-War March" in Berlin, led by Navalnaya, Kara-Murza & Yashin seems an appropiate day to re-publish my essay on why the West and in particular Germany should take a closer look at the self-proclaimed leaders of the Russian opposition in English:
