Can't get enough of local priests? I hope not, because my book 'Pastoral Works. Priests, Books, and Compilatory Practices in the Carolingian Period' has just been published by Brepols (doi.org/10.1484/M.US...). You can read the book's introduction on my website (libripendis.eu/posts/26past...).

And now for something completely different: the Text Object Research Network at the Radboud Institute for Culture and History had its first date with a manuscript of the academic year. I found myself reading a 17th c. letter by famous Dutch historian/poet/playwright P.C. Hooft. Not my usual fare!
