We’re getting ready for you and all the shopping is done! Hopefully we have enough crisps and beer 🍻

The 2nd instalment of our Post-REALM ‘Travel & Transcriptions’ series is now live! Find out about Moritz’s visit to the British Library to see some Floris & Blancheflour manuscripts: postrealmproject.wordpress.com/2025/06/17/t... @moritzdraschner.bsky.social #medieval #medievalmanuscripts

Floire and Blancheflor is everywhere so we are too! @moritzdraschner.bsky.social was recently in Leiden to see the Dutch manuscripts. 📖🇳🇱Check out his blog post (and find out more about the Post-REALM project while you’re there): tinyurl.com/Post-REALM-t... #medieval #medievalmanuscripts

I got to visit @unileiden.bsky.social today and looked at the only two surviving Middle Dutch witnesses of "Floris ende Blancefloer" – in two 14th-c. manuscripts that differed greatly in look and feel!

Moritz’s own doctoral work is focused on the English, Dutch and Norman traditions interwoven across the Channel and North Sea

Moritz Draschner’s telling us about the use of OCRKit Pro and Transkribus as part of the project of editing 40 different versions of the text.

Next up is a team from Düsseldorf led by the ever-awesome Miriam Edlich-Muth, talking about the Post-REALM project postrealmproject.wordpress.com and the different engagements the team is making with retellings of the Flores et Blancheflour narrative across medieval Europe.
