I know E Muehlberger's article on authorship of the Martyrdom of Perpetua and Felicitas. Looking for more but having a hard time searching because I can't quite articulate key words in a search box
Friends with interests in historiography: can you recommend any books/articles that address or theorize the issue of how contemporary scholars of ancient literature/history/religion identify with their subjects, especially with authors? Thx in advance

It's 2023. "Gosh, we didn't realize how people would misuse this" just isn't believable anymore.

Discussing “The #DigitalHumanities as Cultural Capital” by @ctschroeder in class today. It's so instructive, not only for critically analyzing #DH, but also in turning the tables for #ReligiousStudies: Don't ask what DH can do for RS, but ask what RS “can contribute to shaping a more inclusive and self-critical Digital Humanities.” Great way to end a semester!
I'm in the middle of writing the first draft of my next column and let me say that I would not be able to do this job without archive.org. It is just an amazing repository of resources for any kind of research. Really incredible and deserves your support.
Every once in a while I get a request to use one of my photographs in an exhibit or publication. And bc I am a horrible person, every time it happens I think of the editor who told me my photographs looked like cheap tourist photos and shouldn't be included in my book and think f him
I think this is more like how hopelessly out of touch are you regardless of gender, because I check waaaay too many of these boxes. Tho TBF I only say “that’s how they get you!” in a jokey self-parodying way https://ohai.social/@andyrowell/109768294519050958
