Another thrilling hour reading Sir Gawain and the Green Knight at English Department - University of Groningen ! Enjoyed reading the description of the "big green ogre" entering the court. (Un)fortunately, in this day and age, that kind of description only invites Shrek comments

How about a newly identified letter sent to Thomas Hoccleve from France, shortly after the Treaty of Troyes? Read my blog post for the The National Archives on English Privy Seal clerks in France, with an edition of a letter probably sent to the poet. #medievaltwitter blog.nationalarchives.gov.uk/after-troyes-p…

This also means my time at English Department - University of Groningen is very sadly coming to an end - I can only recommend them absolutely wholeheartedly. What a kind, academically rigorous, supportive community there is at Groningen.

Interesting interview with English Department - University of Groningen alum Anne-Mette Hermans Anne-Mette Hermans (my first student assistant, now lecturer at Erasmus Uni R'dam) about her research into the self-presentation of the cosmetic surgery industry.

Kudos & all accolades to Judith Bleeker whose Groningen Research MA thesis 'Books as Chapels: Legal & Commemorative Aspects of Fifteenth-century London Common-Profit Books' scored a perfect 10 - the rarest of grades in the Netherlands! With thanks to my co-examiner Ryan Perry

Tom Holland English Department - University of Groningen had a great set up where I prerecorded the lecture and the scheduled hour for the lecture became a Q&A with the students about the content. Prerecorded lectures don’t have to be dead entities. This headline is also, as people have commented, so misleading.
