two things that keep me feeling young are (a) cycling and (b) not knowing what the hell my life is about

I saw someone responding to critique of generative AI with the image of monks resisting the printing press. The Latin Church embraced printing technology early on. The first printed book in Scandinavia was the Odense breviary of 1482. People grasp for historical precedence when there is none.

Choose 20 books that have stayed with you or influenced you. One book per day for 20 days, in no particular order. No explanations, no reviews, just covers. 1/20 #BookSky #BookChallenge

Does anybody know if there's an escriptorium model that might work for 15th century Old Swedish (gothic cursiva)? And, how strict is the invitation system? Thank you!

Sometimes working with manuscripts gets us really, really close to the people from the past allowing us to hear their voices. This is a story of a letter from a schoolgirl to her teacher, written probably sometime at the end of the 9th or the beginning of the 10th century. A thread 🧵 #medievalsky /1

A faint writing, the text is in Latin and it reads: Domina magistra felhin date mihi licenciam in hac nocte vigilare cum magistra adalu et ego vobis ambabus manibus confirmo atque iuro ut per totam noctem declinare volo aut legere aut pro seniore nostro cantare Valete et ut peto facite. (Abbreviations have been resolved in this transcription).

Utförsäljning av allmännyttan. Avreglering av skolan. Privatisering av sjukvården. Marknadsanpassat samhälle. Kapitalet och vinstintressen styr vilket omedelbart gör att den mest behövande människan med minst resurser drabbas. De ekonomiska klyftorna växer. Kriminaliteten ökar. >

Word of warning to all: this post, all OP's other posts, and the website link, is utter garbage. Every single claim made by OP is grossly incorrect. #badhistory #medievalsky #ancientsky To know more about the real Codex Runicus - read a scholarly source: www.csmc.uni-hamburg.de/publications...

A selection from Schering Rosenhane's (1609—1663) book collection: Olof Rudbeck's Atlantica, Snorri's Heimskringla, and what surely must be Þormóður Torfason's Historia rerum Norvegicarum (?)

Recently I was able to talk a little about one of my favorite items in our special collections - the Stockholm Bloodbath Engraving. Originally commissioned by Gustav Vasa in 1524, it's a remarkable depiction of Stockholm and also an excellent example of early modern propaganda: shorturl.at/ezFM7
