Online Exhibit: Ethiopic Manuscript Production

The companion website to my exhibit on Ethiopian manuscript production at the John M. Kelly Library at the University of St. Michael's College in the University of Toronto. It features some of the items I collected as part of my Fulbright project, Ethiopic Manuscript Culture and its European Analogues (2008-2009) and highlights my work on the history and scribal practices of Christendom's last continuous craftsmanly tradition of manuscript production.

Ludus Scrabularum apud Centrum Studiorum Mediaevalium Universitatis Torontonensis

I enjoy playing Scrabble in Latin by the Toronto Rules, and have put up a web site in order to share the past-time with the community. Have a look.

The Academy of European Medieval Martial Arts at the University of Toronto

I am the founding chair of AEMMMA's campus auxiliary society, AEMMA U of T, which is: dedicated to promoting awareness, study, and training in the historical martial arts of Europe on the University of Toronto (UofT) campus and facilitating links between the academic and Historical European Martial Arts (HEMA) communities. It does not engage in role-playing, re-enactment, or fantasy, nor does it seek to recreate the societal norms of pre-modern Europe. We will be having a variety of events over the course of the year, as well as arranging for discounted training for U of T students.
