You should read through all of this (especially as a ttrpg designer, you need to understand level design too) then drop Delaney a few bucks for summarizing this so cleanly.

As a two-time alumnus of Edinburgh Uni, it's hard not to despair at the short-sighted plans by management to decimate degree programmes across the arts, humanities, and social sciences. Solidarity to all affected by this act of utter vandalism.

It also incentivises even more prospective projects to be (presented as) paradigm-shifting, ignoring the fact that most considerate research only incrementally moves the needle rather than wildly upends everything that came before.

Ending the week on a high by meeting what may be the oldest Scottish book still in Scotland. Late C10/early C11, it is a psalter in Irish minuscule, presumably created in Scotland, exact provenance unknown. Richly illum. initials throughout, with fine interlacing and lots of brilliant animal heads.

Celtic Psalter (late 10th/early 11th century), opened with illuminated initials visible.

A large, colourfully illuminated initial in a medieval manuscript, with animal head and claw terminals.

This “skidding goat” vase was likely made in Iran c.3500 BCE. Similar jars were made at settlements in mountain valleys that connected Mesopotamia in the west to Iran.

"Every day, scientists are allowed to publish sentences like, “Many assume there is a close connection between human history and culture (Donaldson 2019)," and yet English departments are the problem?' Friction is good. Joined-up thinking is good. Refusing to be ashamed about the humanities is good.

Art by flaroh illustration; on the left, a couple are walking past the thermopolium wearing their finery. On the right, two children play in the road with their dog while their nursemaid orders them onto the pavement. Behind them, a matrona enters the street from some steps, shielding her eyes from the sun while her attendant holds a parasol. Across the road from the two, a togate man and his two attendants walk towards the thermopolium and are acknowledged by one of the old-timers at the door. Moving further to the background, a donkey cart loaded with amphora approaches the stepping stones. To its left two people chat at the fountain, and a child plays with his doll next to the man. Above, people look out from windows and balconies, gossiping or doing household chores.
