This just out: a Finnish-language collection of Old English literature. 'When the Swords Sang' includes two chapters I co-authored, and I also tried my hand at translating bits of the A-S Chronicle. Publisher: Gaudeamus.
Never knew Old English could take you places, but there we were, Alpo Honkapohja and I, on live radio today, interviewed by Nicklas Wancke about the new collection of OE literature translated into Finnish.

Last day of Reading Visual Devices conference, organised by @emodgral.bsky.social project. Talked about pronouns in E Mod #grammar books and learnt a lot from my fellow presenters. Great session!
