Lines from ‘LIUIS FIRIST ANT LICUMES HELE’ we need to hear during these trying times! Full text soon on #OpenAccesAnthology! “Liuis firist. (ant) licumes hele. þine sinnes heir to beten, (ant) þine soule to sal[i]uen þine children to (con)sailen. (ant) þine frent to gladien”
Why bother checking the original medieval manuscript? You find cool differences like this one! 'Sir Gawain and the Green Knight' lines 2470-2474 in manuscript vs print edition
("and then he saw the fairest tower that he had ever seen […] here within this tower with a dolorous lady who has been there in pain (for) many winters and days.")
This passage from ‘Trystram de lyones’ reminds me of a famous fairytale… But which one! Full text soon on our #OpenAccess anthology! “and þ(er) he saw the fayryste towre that eu(er) he saw […] in this towre a dolorous lady that hath bene þ(er) in paynes many wyntyrs and days”
"Þis boc is dan michelis of Northgate | ywrite an englis of his oȝene hand. þet hatte; Ayenbyte of inwyt. And is of þe bochouse of saynt Austines of Canterberi. mid þe lettres; C : C :"
Love this medieval English bookplate: "This book was written by Dan Michael of Northgate, in English and by his own hand. It is called Ayenbite of Inwyt, and it is owned by the library of saint Augustine of Canterbury, and marked with the letters: C : C :"
File under weird medieval animal names: "Phelologee," a horse pulling Phoebus' chariot in the Testament of Cresseid
Today my code for the TOMES Sir Orfeo edition was free of bugs. Today was a good day. (Thanks Eva!)
Forthcoming in our open access medieval anthology: The Testament of Cresseid! This text is fascinating from a disability studies perspective and for its representation of medieval women's lives.
The TOMES edition journey, narrated in exactly 280 characters: student editor👩💻✨📖->peer editor🧑💻-> instructor👩🏫-> student editor👩💻-> instructor👩🏫->research assistant editor💁♀️->instructor👩🏫-> ready for XML markup ->markup team💁♀️👩🏫🙍♀️✨🧙-> ✨🌐online-> anthology readers✨📖✨🙌✨
Should an anthology include mostly classic texts or mostly b-sides? The newest post on our project blog takes up the question: openmedieval.leidenuniv.nl/blog.html
✨"He schulde make a gret boke þat al þynge schulde telle"✨ The final word counts for some of our edition projects are here and they're a bit long 😱😱😱 #LetTheMarkUpBegin #SendEspresso
Hi everyone! There has been some silence from this account, but no more! My name is Djayla, and I will be keeping you all up-to-date on our amazing project from now on (and some memes, don't worry). We hope you will enjoy the TOMES project in all its glory when it is done!
("There was a lady who was surrounded on all sides by her foes, and her country [was] entirely destroyed, and she [was] completely poor within an earthen castle.")
One of the first known romance passages in English (from 'Ancrene Wisse')--forthcoming in our #OpenAccess anthology! "A lefdi ƿas. þet ƿas mid hire uoan biset al abuten. and hire lond al destrued. (and) heo al poure. ƿiðinnen one eorðene castle."
This lovely passage from Sir John Mandeville's travels describes lambs being born out of fruits! Could this 14th-century text contain the origin story for Kinder Surprise Eggs? Translated and transcribed by TOMES students! 🌳🐑
We hope to be able to provide just a bit of joy in these trying times, so here's a medieval fun fact. Did you know that barnacle geese were thought to come from trees that grow over water, falling out of them when they were mature enough? 🌳🐦
One manuscript, five different spellings of "Alfred"! We're not sure whether King Alfred would have been pleased if his subjects had called him "King Alfruered" or "King Helfred", though. 🤴
