Cloud cover obscured most of the eclipse here in the West of Scotland. But, then, it allowed photographing it directly. (It's the sun, not the moon!)

How do emotions shape, and are shaped by, the ways in which texts move between literary systems? The fate of E. Marlitt's best-selling novels in the late nineteenth century provides fascinating insights into this question. 'Moving Texts, Moving Communities' modernlanguagesopen.org/articles/10....

My heart is heavy that we are making a collective miscalculation in undervaluing the humanities - from my FT piece www.ft.com/content/fbde...
Thinking is hard. Reflection is hard. Perhaps we will persist with our collective miscalculation and ignore all that philosophy, literature, classics and history have to offer us. The humanities have a word for this: tragedy.

I’ll be force feeding my piece down your throats bit by bit for the next few days. This is about why loss of research capability in universities isn’t just a linear bit of market forces but a messy process of universities sometimes doing panicky short term cuts
You might think these research cutbacks in universities are the exercise of market forces, with the strongest departments surviving. But it is more complicated than that because of the complex cross-subsidies within higher education. Financial instability is largely driven by the drop in high-paying international students and the erosion in the value of tuition fees by
inflation over the past decade. Caught up in the crossfire of this instability and through no fault of their own, some of the top-ranked humanities research departments are closing, while our analysis shows the number of early-career academics in the humanities has fallen by 20 per cent over the past decade.

Who is your favourite woman writer from the 1800s? Today, many readers are likely to name Jane Austen, but in the 1880s, a common answer across Europe might well have been E. Marlitt. Find out which female authors reached historical readers ca 1850-1920: brill.com/display/titl... #BookHistory
