She’s not on Twitter, so won’t be embarrassed by this tweet, but what a huge act of academic kindness this is from Roey Sweet in finishing off Peter Borsay’s book after his untimely death.

Just so pleased to see my former research student James Fisher so deservedly on this list Royal Historical Society shortlist with his outstanding book THE ENCLOSURE OF KNOWLEDGE

So great to be back with the Georgian Papers Programme crowd this evening (esp Arthur Burns OCWalton & flora fraser). Lovely to see & hear Karin Wulf reflect on the varied & excellent successes of the programme, fellows, and partnerships.

This thoughtful OA article by Renie Chow Choy on imperial monuments in Anglican churches as encountered by highly articulate representatives of previously marginalised groups well worth a read

Two weeks today until the export bar on Joshua Reynolds’ Portrait of Omai officially ends. Indications are the bar will be extended, and that co-acquisition with Getty is possible. Key is to ensure the painting can be viewed for free around the UK - & can tell Mai’s story.
