Unbelievable.

Terwijl geweld tegen burgers in Palestina en Soedan voortduurt, wordt binnen de EU de defensie-industrie in toenemende mate zelfs als ‘duurzaam’ bestempeld. Wapenleveranties aan hoog-risicolanden verlengen conflicten en vergroten het menselijk leed.

Last Monday, 23 February, at the Radboud University, I had the honour of presenting Prof. Daniël den Hengst with the first copy of my Green & Yellow volume of commentary, Sidonius Apollinaris: Selected Letters (www.cambridge.org/nl/universit...).

All the CSEL volumes prior to 2010 now available in PDF online.

This is really going to bring the CSEL series right to the front of everyone's minds. Someone over there is being very clever.
