In 2023 Carolyn Muessig organised a workshop on Female Preaching in Premodern Europe in Calgary. It was one of the most fruitful and fun events in my career. Now the first fruits of that workshop are available in the new issue of Medieval Sermon Studies. www.tandfonline.com/doi/full/10....

✨A female illuminators work✨: f. 84v : 'Alanus scripsit has horas et ejus uxor illuminavit eas.’ f. 84v: 'Alan wrote these hours and his wife illuminated them.' I have been waiting for this manuscript to be scanned in colour for a very long time, so am super excited to see it now!

Just inserted the 2500th book in my database on Women and the Book in the Low Countries (c. 1250-1600)😃 #herbook

Came to Leiden University Library, made a pop-up exhibit of medieval manuscripts. Next item: something cool. (3) Two copies of same Middle Dutch text made by same scribe c1450 for different clients. One ordered copy on parchment, the other on paper (see alt text). Now reunited on same table.
