Through August 30th at the Edinburgh Fringe -- a cringe-memoir comedy about Daoism (aka Taoism) 2:25 pm at the Carbon Lounge, room 3 (not Tuesdays) Free show (I'll pass a hat at the end)

There's this article. A bit orthogonal but maybe some good footnotes.

A quick way to do this: 1) go into YouTube Studio (ie click Your Channel, then Manage Videos) 2) click the blank square for all videos on the page, then click Select All 3) Just to the right, click the Edit drop down. "Shorts remixing" is way down the list, number 14 to be exact.

It's not a holy hand grendate (globus cruciger) without the pin on the top. Otherwise it's just a sparkling cherry bomb.

Even more so, the figure prefacing Boniface's Ars grammatica, here in Wuerzburg Universitatsbibliothek M. p. th. f. 28, fol. 44r, 9th century.

The other similar thing is pattern poetry, eg Hrabanus Maurus, Simian's Egg, etc.

More importantly, this is part of a unique palindrome. See if you can read it! (Hint: the last word is COHORTEM)

Did you see any versus recurrentes (verse palindromes) in Berne 207? I ask because Vindob. 751 fol. 39v has one next to a list of rune *names* (but not runes per se) amidst letters of Lul. Derolez discusses Vindob. 751 on pp. 197-206, and links it to Berne 207 on p. 285.

Congratulations! It might be useful to post a list of the letters selected. I had trouble finding one even on the publishers website. This is the best I could find, from the preview's table of contents.

Folks in Vermont or Portland, Oregon: my library minitour this week has 4 free shows in conjunction with the Ursula Le Guin exhibit in Portland's OCCA (Kenton neighborhood). Ego Tourism: How the Tao Made Me (a bit) less Weird as seen at the Edinburgh Fringe. "Perfectly balanced" - the Scotsman

Well, modern scholarly feud about one of my periods... Margherita Guarducci vs. Father Jérôme Carcopino on the ROTAS aka SATOR square. Don't look it up if you're afraid of strong women, or public humiliation.

If you're going to be in Portland, Oregon before February 8th, there is a great - and very interactive - exhibit on Ursula Le Guin, at the Oregon Center for Contemporary Art in the Kenton neighborhood (8371 N. Interstate). Can't recommend this enough. #dao #tao #scifi #sciencefiction

Vermonters! Come see "Ego Tourism" Friday at 11am, at Middlebury College Davis Family Library, room 230. Free. A 1-person show about Daoism (aka Taoism), mixing comedy, cringe memoir and ineffable philosophy, as seen at the Edinburgh Fringe Festival all August. "perfectly balanced" - the Scotsman

Thanks! By the way, this is how your username appears on my browser anyway:

Just 3 more shows at the #Edinburgh #Fringe. Nice review in the Scotsman! Part of the PBH Free Fringe, so free (I'll pass the hat). "Ego Tourism: How the Tao Made Me (a bit less) Weird" Cringe comedy + memoir + ineffable philosophy (#Taoism aka #Daoism) Carbon Lounge (Cowgate & Blair), 4:25 pm.

Greetings from Sighişhoara, Romania! (Yes, named after the manuscript. No, they didn't have a copy.)

Thank you! FYI, the link worked when I typed it in, but clicking on it yielded this error for some reason:

Here's an unusual one: a 15th c. cento of Hrabanus Maurus, de laudibus sanctae crucis, in Einsiedeln Stiftsbibliothek Cod. 232 (olim 602), p. 94.
