"Shoshana von Blanckensee didn’t think anyone would ever read “Girls Girls Girls.” The 47-year-old #queer #Jewish #writer and oncology nurse isn’t being self-effacing when she says this to me over Zoom. Realistic would perhaps be a better word.

When she first started writing what would become her debut #novel about 20 years ago, queer #novels mostly didn’t get #published. And if they did, they were smaller releases through independent #publishers. Shoshana worked on “Girls Girls Girls” long enough to see queer novels and voices force their way into the cultural arena and zeitgeist. But even with that shift, Shoshana thought she was just muscling her way through to the end of a #manuscript, finishing the #book for the sake of finishing it.

I cannot begin to express how thrilled I am that she was wrong."

Master of Claude de France’s Book of Flower Studies (ca. 1510–1515) via The Public Domain Review [Shared]

Despite being full of blooms, this book of floral illustrations marks an autumn in aesthetic history: it was composed during “‘the last flowering’ of northern European manuscript illumination in the medieval tradition”, write curators at the MET. Created in the workshop of the Master of Claude de France, one of the most renowned ateliers in Tours during the early sixteenth century, it takes the form of a model book — and indeed several subsequent commissions linked to Queen Claude drew inspiration from this work.

The image features a detailed illustration of a blue dragonfly perched on a green stem of a flower. The dragonfly has a long, slender body with a blue and green coloration, and its wings are transparent with a delicate pattern. The flower has white petals with a red edge and a yellow center, resembling a daisy. There are three flowers in total, with one fully bloomed, one partially bloomed, and one in bud form. The background is a plain, off-white color, which contrasts with the vibrant colors of the dragonfly and flowers. The illustration is done in a style that suggests it could be from a natural history book or a botanical illustration, with careful attention to the details of the insects and plants.

🎉 After almost a year since the first submission, our manuscript has been accepted!

This is my first time as first author — it's been a challenging journey, but incredibly rewarding. I've learned so much that I’ll apply to future manuscripts and research projects

I hope the paper will be available very soon — stay tuned! 📄✨

Au fil des recherches, on trouve souvent des choses qu'on ne cherchait pas.
Ainsi cette enluminure, sans rapport direct avec ce que je voulais. Je ne pouvais pas garder pour moi cette merveille de Jean Bourdichon, un feuillet détaché d'un livre d'heures et représentant l'Annonciation sur un fond entièrement doré 😍

Détail de l'enluminure : sur un fond doré, la Vierge, dont la tête est couverte d'un drapé bleu et d'un voile blanc, la peau très pâle, est tournée vers la droite, les mains jointes en prière, les yeux dans le vague. En face d'elle, un ange aux ailes vertes et à la tunique blanc-rose croise les bras et la regarde.

Vue du feuillet en entier, collé sur un support de couleur marron. L'enluminure occupe toute la page et est entièrement sur fond doré. A gauche, la Vierge dans un manteau bleu qui lui couvre la tête, elle porte unr robe verte et un voile blanc. Elle a la peau très pâle et les yeux dans le vide. Elle joint ses longues mains en un geste de prière et est tournée vers la droite. En face d'elle, un ange, les bras croisés sur la poitrine, la regarde. Il a des ailes vertes, des cheveux marrons avec des reflets dorés et une auréole translucide. En bas, sur une table recouverte d'un drap blanc aux motifs rouges, un livre est ouvert. En haut, au-dessus de l'ange, la colombe descend de la droite vers la gauche vers la Vierge. On devine des motifs en reliefs, dus aux lettres du revers et à quelques éléments estampés.

@altbot

The image shows two stacks of handwritten pages, likely from an old manuscript or notebook. The pages are yellowed and show signs of age, with some creases and discoloration. The handwriting is in cursive, with ink that has darkened over time, suggesting the pages are quite old. The text is densely written, with no visible headings or titles, and the pages are filled with text from top to bottom. The left stack has a visible crack running through the middle, indicating some damage. The right stack is labeled "Chapter 2" at the top, suggesting it is part of a larger work. The text appears to be in English, with some words underlined, possibly for emphasis or correction. The pages are bound together, with the edges slightly frayed, and the overall condition suggests they have been preserved for a long time.

Clearing out some boxes today and what do I find? A half-written manuscript for a novel I started 15 years ago!

Not only is there about 20k words but I've sketched out the entire plot, including the conflict/climax and conclusion (this is quite rare for me) and done some actual research to check historical accuracy (less rare, but still unexpected, considering I would have been in a baby/pregnancy fog at the time).

As usual, I've written questions and comments in the margins, in the hopes that future/editor-me would find the answers so that writer-me could just keep writing and stay in the zone.

A picture of a page of a notebook. There's an arrow that's coming from the bottom of the page (referring to some text out of shot) and I've written a comment that says, 'mild swearword? Was "fuck" as popular in the 1970s as it is now? Damn? Drat? Shit?'

Mit dem Christentum kam die Schriftkultur nach Island. Obwohl kirchliche Texte anfangs auf Latein verfasst wurden, entwickelte sich Isländisch rasch zur gleichwertigen Schriftsprache. Zum Schreiben nutzte man Federkiele und Tinte aus Pflanzen oder Ruß.

If you enjoy #medieval illustrations, now get ready for drawings made by bored medieval students! This one is from a commentary on Aristotle's Metaphysics, and it portrays what I assume is an elf.

This 15th-century manuscript consists of an abridged version of the commentary on Aristotle's Metaphysics, and it probably was used as a convenient handbook among young students.
