As the indexer, happily I was one of this essay collection's first readers, & I couldn't recommend it more highly!
Thank you to everyone who contributed to 'Speech/less in the Early Modern World' research workshop at Emmanuel College last week! My brain is still absolutely buzzing with inspiration from all the incredible papers! āļø
Symptomatic of a long, slow slide into cultural decline over decades since university extramural courses began to be run down. #LifelongLearning
My new blog for the Social History Society on the loss of adult education centres in universities, with particular focus on history and the closure of the Centre for Lifelong Learning at York. šļø
It is no exaggeration to say York's Centre for Lifelong Learning changed my life. A creative writing course led by @sophiecoulombeau.bsky.social has resulted in novels published, new friends, and later this year, I very much hope, a PhD.
It's such a loss.
The deadline for this has been extended to this Friday (1 May) - we would love to have you join the team!
