if you're in the mood to read a strong affirmation about the worth of disabled lives in the face of a eugenicist administration.... so was i, so i wrote one: buttondown.com/theswordandt...

Disability is not a moral failing. It’s not a punishment. It’s not karma. It’s part of the human experience. Our bodies are frail, and given enough time most people will experience disability. The idea that we’re lazy, choosing not to “try hard” or want to be sick is a fallacy born out of ableism

So thrilled to have my translation of this gorgeous (that is, bleak and beautiful) poem by the ever cheery Paolina Secco Suardo Grismondi (Lesbia Cidonia) appear in SWWIM! @swwim.bsky.social #translation #poetry #italianliterature #18thcentury #settecento #poesia #letteratura

What will surely be an absolutely brilliant talk (and take) by Véronique Tadjo! So sad to miss it

Princeton UP is #hiring! PUP seeks an Editorial Assistant (US - Remote or Hybrid) to support two acquisition editors and assist in the signing, development, and publishing of distinctive and outstanding books in anthropology, sociology, and religious studies.

Really, the main reason I regret the end of semesters is because it puts our lovely Mahindra Humanitied Renaissance Studies Seminar on a brief hiatus.😿 Thrilled though, by our wonderful lineup for both semesters of the AY & still absorbing the brilliant talk Anne J. Cruz treated us to yesterday!

If anyone loves and/or hates the roguish Clemente Palma, as one does, I have an article (“El impulso autorial malévolo…”) in the latest MLN on Palma’s intertextual borrowings from French lit… (And I also love this cover and the article related to it!) #literature #shortstory #literaturaperuana

Hellscape!

Quelle tristesse d'apprendre le décès de Christiane Klapisch-Zuber, une grande historienne qui a apporté une contribution précieuse… une contribution absolument remarquable aux études de genre prémodernes et aux études médiévales au sens plus large du terme.
