Scribe in 1470 writes 'turn over' and 'turn over the page'. Planning the lay-out is difficult! This is probably the first neat (presentation/promotion?) copy of a Middle Dutch translation of #Boethius De consolatione philosophiae, by Bruges goldsmith Jacob Vilt. @UniUtrechtLib

Our colleagues arrive in Puducherry @ifp_india and @EFEO_Paris today to start examining historical palm-leaf #manuscripts in our Container Lab. Our local partners have built a superb palm roof over it to protect it from the heat: It's now all set and stays there until late 2025

My Latin Palaeography online course @IMEMSDurham starts tomorrow. I’m excited to meet our first cohort and to learn what they think of the course. I’ve poured myself into it and, if nothing else, I’m proud of what I’ve created.
