And will have more opportunity to talk about the fantastic project of getting @rialibrary.bsky.social MS 24 B 1 digitised and displaying and discussing it alongside the Newman College Táin manuscript here @unimelb.edu.au ...

Poster showing a manuscript image and giving the following information: PUBLIC LECTURE: Dr Sarah Corrigan
Newman Tàin Bò Cuailgne: How the Manuscript Tradition of the Irish Epic Ended, and Ended Up, in Melbourne.
The St Mary’s Newman Academic Centre (SNAC), Manuscript Táin Bó
Cuailnge (‘The Cattle Raid of Cooley’) is a nineteenth-century manuscript copy of the most famous Irish narrative of the Middle Ages. Although its oldest surviving copies were produced in the twelfth century, the story of the Táin is set in the first century, and it has been argued to have been written in several periods in between. This talk will highlight the dual significance of this beautiful manuscript by exploring the history of its contents, the physical object, and its creator, Seosamh Ó Longáin, the last official scribe of Ireland.
Wednesday 11 March 2026 5–6pm
Venue: The Oratory, Newman College, University of Melbourne, 887 Swanston Street, Parkville.

I wasn’t here yet! Found in a box of office stuff from the move: some severely delayed post from ten years ago that at the time seemed a hilarious mistake but now I realise was a grievous error by Royal Mail revealing that they know the future…

Teaching semesters as illustrated by my StoryGraph 😄 Don’t really include academic books - they’re often not read in their entirety and don’t feel like valid entries. Anyone have a satisfying system for tracking research / teaching reading for the year? Page numbers? Zotero tags?
