Excited to share the cover of the new book, out from @WmCollinsBooks on 30.1.25, on the global sublime, the magic of language and Renaissance Italy. Many thanks as ever to @ArabellaPike and team for their superb design. @BlakeFriedmann

Just been back for a second time to the superb ‘Endless Stories’ exhibition at @theUL, on Erpenius’ collections of Arabic, Syriac, Hebrew, Malay, etc. So richly thought provoking to think of these books arriving in Cambridge at the same time as Milton.

The British Museum reading room is open to the public. My first time in here for nearly 30 years. It’s as beautiful and spectacular as I remember.

Fascinating instance of someone trying to catalogue a Greek book in the 16th c with only shaky knowledge of Greek characters. Hellenists, care to help me decode this? The last word appears to be “ κεκρυπται” but other than that I am not getting very much
