A rare and precious chance to get some rewards hand-printed in our very special Bristol Common Press! Or, if you're feeling flush, get your own hand-printing workshop!

In the basement of the English department lives @briscommonpress, a working historical print shop used to support teaching and research. Who wants to guess what lives in this bucket there?

Great talk (for @BristolSML research seminar) by Rhiannon Daniels of @BristolItalian & @booksatbristol on early modern eds. of Decameron. How to collate all this material? Images essential for both researcher & audience, but potential publication formats often image-unfriendly.
