new project requires a new #introduction: I’m a settler scholar on unceded Sḵwx̱wú7mesh lands (so-called Vancouver east end.) I write about form, figuration, in-betweenness and amongstness, in the C19 Atlantic and inland waterways. Newer projects on settler uses of early C19 poetics in placemaking; and the category of the material in #mediahistory. I print stuff, #run, #bird, and am learning #changeringing as a Masorti Jew. I post about book[art]s, history, pedagogy, dogs. #litstudies #histodons

Nous sommes une association consacrée à l'étude de la Renaissance, de l'humanisme et de la Réforme. Nous sommes pluridisciplinaires: tout nous intéresse, pourvu que ce soit en lien avec le XVIe siècle! Ce compte sert essentiellement à mettre en valeur les activités scientifiques des membres de l'association. Nous parlons aussi régulièrement de notre revue, entièrement éditée par nos soins, dont les archives peuvent être consultées sur Cairn ou sur Persée.

Teresa Pinto Coelho foi convidada pela RTP para falar sobre Eça de Queiroz na Cerimónia de Concessão de Honras de Panteão.
Partilhamos o excerto da sua primeira intervenção, sobre a vida e obra do autor:
Começamos o ano com uma recomendação de leitura, via @Publico, cujo crítico considera "Eça de Queirós no Egipto e a Abertura do Canal de Suez", de Teresa Pinto Coelho, "um trabalho de investigação provavelmente definitivo sobre a viagem de Eça ao Egipto para assistir à faustosa inauguração do Canal de Suez".
#Ursula K. Le Guin on #writing: the freedom, the loneliness, the difficulty.
"You sit down and you do it, and you do it, and you do it, until you have learned how to do it. Of course, there are differences. Writing makes no noise, except groans, and it can be done anywhere, and it is done alone."

#EmilyDickinson was born today in 1830. What's your favorite poem of hers? So many to choose from. Here's one of mine.
The Brain—is wider than the Sky—
For—put them side by side—
The one the other will contain
With ease—and you—beside—
The Brain is deeper than the sea—
For—hold them—Blue to Blue—
The one the other will absorb—
As sponges—Buckets—do—
The Brain is just the weight of God—
For—Heft them—Pound for Pound—
And they will differ—if they do—
As Syllable from Sound—

LitHub published a piece today on #memoir and discussed how so few were listed in the top 100 best books of the past 25 years. #Didion's Year of Magical Thinking was on it, which is one of the greatest memoirs/books I've read. Here are three of my other favorites (there are more!). How about you?
