A yellow pilgrim's scallop on a tree trunk overlooking a town in a river valley. Grey clouds with a spot of light above.

The 15th-century manuscript of codex palatinus germanicus 148. The left verso page has a fairly standard two-column layout, whereas the recto page on the right utilizes the convention of 'pagina cum textu incluso': A colorful arrangement of rectangular miniatures in the center is surrounded by text that fills up most of the page. Visible in the center are scenes related to Judas' betrayal of Christ, along with four prophets.

Don't go astray: Pilgrim's way above the river Neckar.

This week in Heidelberg, German medievalists met for a conference on 'Heimat' - home & belonging.

But! Michigan felt like home *much* sooner than we expected! It only took a year or so, whereas previous places I've lived have taken 2-3 years to really put down roots.

#AcademicNomad life often means picking up and leaving soon after settling in 🥲
