The Manuscript of the Week is RIA MS 23 F 16, the O’Gara manuscript. Written in the Low Countries in the mid-17th C, this collection of poetry transmits important literary material from manuscript sources that have since been lost.
www.gla.ac.uk/myglasgow/li... - Short-term research fellowships (1-4 weeks) available in the University of Glasgow Library, to work with our wonderful Archives and Special Collections. Do apply if this would suit you - a number of Celticists have been successful in the past.

"'Is cinnte go bhféadfadh cúrsaí a bheith níos measa,’ a deir Nike Stam, ‘agus tá muid buíoch as an tacaíocht ar fad a fuair muid i bhfoirm agóidí, alt, litreacha agus achainí ar líne, a chabhraigh lenár gcás go mór.’" 💚

About this. I've just received an email from a friend and associate of Maartje Draak saying Maartje would have been 'highly satisfied' with this article, and I'm, just, I can't even, what. This is probably the best peer review I'll ever get in my life.

In their series 'protest songs', Nike talks about the various ways in which Óró sé do bheatha 'bhaile has been used as a protest - from the Jacobites to the feminists to our own Celtic students via Pádraig Mac Piarais. 2/2

Excellent work by all involved!
I am so excited that this is live! @naoicea.bsky.social ’s article for which Dr. Katie Albers-Morris and I did the image processing and tech write up for is now live! Nike did an incredible pain-staking job with the translation and transcription. I am in awe of the effort she put into this edition.
A publication out of Utrecht fresh in @sfennica.bsky.social !
Logo of MAartje Draak Seminars which says 'sneak peek!' and has an image of dr. Jasper de Bruijn looking into the camera smilingly from in between a row of Roman altars.
We are very delighted that dr. Jasper de Bruin of Rijksmuseum van Oudheden will speak at the #MaartjeDraakSeminars on the recently discovered Bunnik coin hoard, which contains both Celtic and Roman coins. Of course, we will be able to see the coins themselves on location @rmoudheden.bsky.social !
You know you're studying a good language when there is a word specifically for *the neck of a decapitated body*
Sometimes I forget how wonderfully graphic Fled Bricrenn is - why is there no film yet?

We are delighted that dr. Fraser Hunter has agreed to be one of our speakers at the #MaartjeDraakSeminars 2025! He is the principal curator of prehistoric and Roman archaeology at the National Museums Scotland with a strong focus on ‘Celtic Art’ and the impact of the Romans on local populations.
Interesting, thanks for the link!
I don't think so, but @rmoudheden.bsky.social might know more about this!
