Delighted to share that a bit of research from my new book project about medieval and early modern immigrant and transnationally itinerant actors, musicians, dancers, and other performers has now been published in the journal "Renaissance Studies". onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/...
I was very pleased to find that my copy of The Oxford Handbook of Early Modern Authorship had arrived when I got home today! I find myself in very good company, and I'm looking forward to reading more. @loughnrv.bsky.social and Will Sharpe were great editors to work with 😊

ANNNNND it will be open access!
Next month we are hosting a two-day conference about ‘A Midsummer Night’s Dream’ and ‘The Winter’s Tale’, the two texts we recently published in variorum format on our website.
What a great group of speakers we’ll be hearing from!
Today the Sunday Times discusses the decline in students studying A-level and beyond. I believe this is reversible. I believe it is necessary. And I’m glad to have some of my words on the importance of the discipline and the vibrancy of our degrees in English at York in the article.
Just brilliant to see this in the wild. Big congrats @loughnrv.bsky.social and Will Sharpe
We are happy to announce the list of speakers at our two-day conference next year about ‘A Midsummer Night’s Dream’ and ‘The Winter’s Tale’.
What a starry cast!
