Check out @dalisera.bsky.social’s new article on the Book of Durrow’s evangelical symbols & his approach to Pictish iconographic influence! A good read for folks interested in Christian apocrypha, gospel reception, Irenaeus, and Pictish/Columban imagery clog.glasgow.ac.uk/ojs/index.ph...

Excited this is out - lots of Columban loveliness from myself (on island monasteries), and papers by Heather Pulliam Gilbert Markus Victoria Thompson and many others clog.glasgow.ac.uk/ojs/index.ph... OPEN ACCESS

An apocalyptic scene: people hide in caves, as the sun goes dark, the moon reddens, and the stars fall to the earth (Cf. Revelation 6:12-17). From a mid-10th century Iberian illumination of Beatus’s late-8th century “Commentary on the Apocalypse,” Morgan Library & Museum, MS M.644, fol. 112r.

Such an honor to publish with postmedieval @postmedieval.bsky.social !

If you are in Rome (🇮🇹) for #EAA2024 (🏺) this week, come check out our Friday afternoon session on premodern stone——a sequel to last year’s daylong session in Belfast: “#643, The Experience of Stone II: Sculpting Comparative Phenomenologies.” @celticist.bsky.social #medievalsky

Our stone panel at EAA2023 in Belfast was such a success that we are offering a sequel session at EAA2024 in Rome: "The Experience of Stone II: Sculpting Comparative Phenomenologies." Folks in history & archaeology are especially encouraged to submit abstracts! @celticist.bsky.social 🏺 #medievalsky

I'm a bit slow to the game (Lindisfarne called) but we had a super all-day session at the EAA. Massive thanks to my co-organiser @dalisera.bsky.social. Alexander & I will be working with colleagues from Queens Uni Belfast to get our papers jointly published by Springer in an edited vol. Stay tuned!

The schedule is finally set for our daylong (!) panel at EAA2023 in Belfast: “The Experience of Stone.” 24 papers, with global scope and a vast chronology from prehistory to the medieval. (Subjects include: caves, high crosses, death rituals, sacred stones, temples, volcanic seascapes, and more…)
