Word of the day: 'onolatry' - (noun) worship of the donkey or ass. Also in extended use: excessive admiration for or devotion to foolishness or a foolish thing.
Conference organiser @ZoeScreti has recently had an article published by @Mid_Hist_Review! Not beast related but a good read for anyone interested in the clothing of Tudor court fools. You can check the piece out here: midlandshistoricalreview.com/a-motley-to-th…

Both a dog and a cat have spotted you from inside Samuel van Hoogstraten's amazing View Down a Corridor, 1662. Not to mention the parrot in its cage! But the people are oblivious.

As academics, it’s really alright to say “I didn’t know this information” or “I’ve never read that.” Intellectual competitions breed further ignorance when we pretend to be privy to knowledge we really don’t know. And it’s alright not to know.

Hi @lwahlgrensmith & Latinists of Twitter, I have a Hakluyt headscratcher for you; can you transcribe this phrase and translate it? It's from Hakluyt's likely source for 'An agreement made between king Henry the fourth and Conradus de Jungingen ...'
