My lecture tomorrow at La Sapienza is in Italian but I’m reposting in English in case of interest in a curious but immensely important moment in the history of Platonism, namely Cardinal Cusanus’s evaluation of Pseudo-Dionysius Platonism through his readings of Plato and Proclus.

🚨Must-read clickthrough for medievalists working on UK-held materials🚨 Appeals court appears to have upheld that non-derivative images of out-of-copyright works cannot be held in copyright = those repro fees must go. (Esp of note given BL image dept's crisis.)
