Sorry to toot my own horn but: a collection edited by @CarlaMazzio on the future - & the future of Shakespeare studies - has just come out from UPenn press & it contains an essay by yrs truly called “Earth Dies Burning.” I worked really hard on this and I hope you will read it.

@DDDrewDaniel @CarlaMazzio can't wait to read this!

This article from The Papers of the Bibliographical Society of America examines questions of forgery and pseudonymity surrounding a Romantic-era, gender-nonconforming writer. Learn more about the possibilities of trans bibliography: ow.ly/jSIS50Tn0SY @BibSocAmer

@eoin_price not sure i'd call it the "one play" but i think people should spend more time reading and thinking and writing about cambises

Do you think there is any one play you need to know well to understand early modern English drama? On the one hand I think no and on the other I think The Spanish Tragedy.

@AdamLZucker v excited about this!!

I'm word-oriented, obscurity-loving human. I found a home for myself in early modern studies, where those core traits can be oriented towards ethical, pleasurable communal work. My new book rethinks 'stupidity' and 'pedantry' and 'nonsense' to share that orientation.

@LostPlayhouse That's so weird!!

Returned to the office this morning after a week off, to find somebody has been rifling through stuff on my desk and window sill. My Romeo and Juliet Pop! figures are separated! Worst of all, they tore several sticky notes nearly in half and left them on my desk. Who does that?!
