I’ve always disliked large conferences bc they’re overwhelming. But I go for a number of reasons including my favorite: moments like this one where I found myself w a beloved colleague poring over the Medieval Academy Fellows’ book & squealing w delight as we got to the page w Panofsky’s signature.

A couple of photos from the 101st Meeting of the MAA. It's been an amazing experience of teamwork that has lasted for months. Kudos to all! My special thanks go to Jen Adams for her leadership and to Jesús Rodríguez Velasco for an outstanding plenary and dedication during the event.

The Catalan word ‘metzina’ means “poison”. It stems from the same Latin word as ‘medicina’, meaning “medicine”. ‘Metzina’ was inherited from spoken Latin, while ‘medicina’ is a late borrowing from written Latin. Pairs like this are called doublets. Episode 7 of my series: Catalan. Next: Galician.

In vol. 7, no. 4, Giovanni Cascio (U di Messina) studies an intriguing reworking of Francesco Petrarca’s "Liber sine nomine" in which Italy and the main Italian cities mentioned in Petrarch's epistles are replaced by Prussia and the town of Olsztyn in Warmia.

Framing GenAI as a battle between teachers and students is a red herring. Students and educators are on the same side. The real opposition are the data extraction firms and brokerages and their allies among the managerial class.
