Sometimes my work is fantastic, like today. I will begin with alterations on an article on illustrations of Christmas celebrations that has been on review. Then I will write a proposal of a new article on Virgin Mary and medieval death for a small research group on my department with an interest in Death Studies. Finally I will make the final preparations for the lecture on Surrealism tomorrow morning. All days are not like this, I guess they would loose some of the attraction if they were. But it shows how stimulating academia can be at its best.

The image of the author Christine de Pisan comes from Feminae: Medieval Women and Gender Index: https://inpress.lib.uiowa.edu/feminae/Default.aspx
Here one can find images, journal articles, book reviews and lots of other interesting material on women and medieval studies, so go and have a look.
