I'm so proud that Arianna Pastorini, a PhD student I have been mentoring, has recently published some of her research on the handwriting of the Poor Clares in sixteenth-century Bologna. She has important things to say about female scribal practice and our understanding of cursive writing. The article is locked, but DM me for a copy if you are interested.
