Catching up. Or at least trying to.

Having been off blog (and mostly also off computer) for the best part of the last month, there is a big heap of not-urgent-but-possibly-interesting stuff that has accumulated and is now cluttering up my inbox.

So to get a few of them off my list, here you go:

- Hortulus has issued a call for papers for the next issue, topic: Wounds, Torture, and the Grotesque. Deadline for contributions is February 15, with the possibility of a later deadline upon request.

- There has been a stack of book reviews and book summaries in the yahoo list MEDTC-DISCUSS; I will not repost them all here. Instead, go join the group to access the back mails. 

- There is an exhibition about Tudor fashion in portrait paintings coming up, called "In Fine Style: The Art of Tudor and Stuart Fashion". It will be in The Queen's Gallery, Buckingham Palace, and run from Friday, 10 May 2013 to Sunday, 06 October 2013. An exhibition catalogue will also be available.   

That's the first stack of possibly interesting things - more to come in the next days...
