I was following ...Yes, I know, and yes, I remember. I was following the convention of not naming on blogs, even though I see you do identify yourself on your profile page. But still. It somehow seems...*rude* to name people on blogs.<br /><br />That Q&A was all rather unfortunate and worse still, distracting. I was sorry there wasn't more engagement with Stubbs, especially because we did spend quite a bit of time talking about MSS. Mind you, there were people giving papers on theorizing manuscripts that I don't think had spent a great deal of time reading them. Cattiness over and out!Miglior acquehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00435557718401883857noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12578491.post-2834516160862749892010-07-27T09:10:40.911+01:002010-07-27T09:10:40.911+01:00You're welcome! (BTW this is Lawrence Warner -...You're welcome! (BTW this is Lawrence Warner --I'm the one who asked Estelle, "Why Gower?"). Yes that Q&A was extraordinarily unpleasant, and the questioner is at the forefront of the Pinkhurst backlash too. Sigh. Glad to find your blog which I found linked from Karl Steel's post today on In the Middle.LanglandinSydneyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02076779340305316211noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12578491.post-72805133444654936782010-07-27T08:53:43.924+01:002010-07-27T08:53:43.924+01:00Yes, I think these are all true. I also think that...Yes, I think these are all true. I also think that while the Pinkhurst identification was "packaged" for a wider public, the findings and results of the work on the other scribes has remained relatively local, within a small group of specialists. Yes, they are identifying many scribes and it will take quite some time to work out the implications. I also think that at the Q&A afterwards there was some tension with another presenter and a questioner, which created an odd atmosphere: people couldn't wait to get out!<br />Thank you LanglandinSydney for the comment and for reading.Miglior acquehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00435557718401883857noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12578491.post-73334929830227475522010-07-26T23:34:53.853+01:002010-07-26T23:34:53.853+01:00Yes, Stubbs's paper was the hit of the confere...Yes, Stubbs's paper was the hit of the conference, and I told everyone who'd listen about it. Folks didn't talk about it, I think, for 3 reasons: 1) Pinkhurst fatique--they are identifying so many so quickly (like scribe of Hm 114! I'd missed that), 2) fear of being caught up in the backlash; 3) her title didn't say what the paper was about. But, yeah, what a great project and paper.LanglandinSydneyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02076779340305316211noreply@blogger.com
