We were discussing Henry V in class yesterday, and a student was having trouble with the final scene between Henry and Katharine. She asked: “Henry just won the Battle of Agincourt. He’s happy, his soldiers are happy, the audience is happy, Joseph Campbell is happy. Why does #shakespeare include it?”
It gave me a chuckle. Sometimes there are lighthearted stories coming out of the classroom.

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

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". 
Público · Uma investigação notável sobre a viagem de Eça de Queiroz ao Egipto, em 1869
#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."

One change this semester: I no longer required students to write papers in the dread five-paragraph format. It has been very liberating for some. If we are asking them to think independently, why shouldn’t they also express themselves outside of the cookie cutter? Though I begin many a comment now with: “Disclaimer: a freshman comp instructor probably wouldn’t approve. But I am not a freshman comp instructor.”

Elisa Scaraggi analysed "Mário Pinto de Andrade’s efforts to raise solidarity with Angola in Brazil", mapping "Andrade’s collaborations with intellectuals and journalists who supported the independence of #Angola and understand how the discourse about the Angolan liberation struggle was articulated in #Brazil".
The paper was published in Compendium on #OpenAccess: https://doi.org/10.51427/com.jcs.2024.05.0006
#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—
