Just got this notification via the CMS mailing list:
( woot! a conference! )
I didn't know Harbus was at Macquarie! here was me whinging to![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
blackbuttoneyes that anglo-saxonists are thin on the ground in Australia, just the other day. i was basing that assumption on the fact that i'd been told that Usyd is the last place teaching medieval languages. (ie, i was talking through my hat) but i guess i hadn't thought about the quite obvious fact that one could teach something else and research anglo-saxon stuff. i don't mean i expect to be finding an anglo-saxonist under every rock, but it's a good reminder of how sydney-uni centric my experience is.
and squee, Transforming Concepts in Old English Translations of Latin Texts sounds like something which may be vr. useful for the essay i'm working on for David at the moment, due shortly after said conference.
( note for LIS )
