For a fun read, I wrote for @degruyterbrill.bsky.social's De Gruyter Conversations blog on the reasons why we should be serious about critically analyzing all types of media, especially innocuous ones like Christmas films.

I share a new special issue of the International Journal of Wood Culture🌲📘 Volume 5 opens with a tribute to Pieter Baas, whose vision shaped the field of wood culture and supported the International Wood Culture Society, World Wood Day and the journal’s move to @degruyterbrill.bsky.social 🙏🪵

📘 The official edition of the “Preparatory Work” of the Convention is now available in digital format. ➡️ This fully searchable digital PDF has been made possible thanks to @degruyterbrill.bsky.social, which digitised all eight volumes free of charge. www.echr.coe.int/documents/d/...
