I haven't posted here in a while, but am thrilled to report that our edition of Folchino dei Borfoni's 14th-c. Latin teaching texts of Virgil, Lucan, and other classical auctores came out in print last month! #scholarlypublishing #medievaleducation #Latinlanguage #classics #editing

I thought I would test DeepL by having it #translate an English email message into #Italian. The result referred to my recipient in both the singular "tu" forms and the plural "voi" forms. 1/2

Yes, my dear friend and colleague @heurtebiseange.bsky.social and I have a coauthored/coedited book at press! I am grateful for all the work he has done as main volume editor. More details to follow soon.

I posted this on LI, suggesting the hypercorrection of adding -s- on an already plural #Italian word commonly used in English should have been reviewed before production, and--wow--do people have opinions on it both ways! 1/3

As an #editor who works for university presses and directly for clients who publish with them, I support the @aupresses.bsky.social's statement on their core values and cuts to the NEH. 1/

Hi there! I'm dipping my toes in here, trying to follow the #editors, #academics, and #publishers that I used to follow in that other place. Hoping to recreate a same great community of sharing information and mutual support that we had way back when. Still figuring out how this works - stay tuned!
