Cuando me postulé a los programas doctorales en Estados Unidos lo hice con un ensayo sobre lírica popular al que le tenía poquísima fe. Por ese entonces yo era achichincle en la Academia Mexicana de la Lengua y conocí a Margit.

El viernes pasado falleció a sus 100 años Margit Frenk, maestra absoluta de literatura del Siglo de Oro y de cultura popular. No sé por dónde empezar, pero quiero hablar de ella. Pocas obras de investigación humanística tienen la trascendencia de su legado

Leer a Margit marcó un antes y un después. Su trabajo me hizo ver la poesía viva de todos los días y cambió por completo mi entendimiento de la literatura. No sé si hubiera seguido por el camino de las letras—que a ratos se sentía tan estéril y alejado del mundo—sin ella.
Entre sus numerosas obras destaca la compilación del Cancionero folklórico de México (1975-1985).
Nuestras condolencias a sus familiares y amistades. #QEPD Margit Frenk. 🙏

Esta reseña que hizo Sam Armistead del Nuevo corpus de la lírica popular resume lo que nos deja Margit tras su muerte.

One day I will write a lengthy essay on the excruciating psychological pain the absurd practice of American leaf-blowing bestows upon me.

A 1605 pliego that imagines the wedding between Guzmán de Alfarache and la Pícara Justina. Their wedding banquet includes grilled cats (☹️) that taste like ducks, and among the guests are Sancho Panza and Celestina.

Listen to the latest episode of Esculent, where I had such fun talking to the incomparable Paul Freedman. We discuss the history of the celebrity chef and Catalan cuisine while sipping French wine out of mezcal glasses.

Listen to our latest episode, recorded live! We talk with chefs Norma Listman and Saqib Keval about historically informed food, how to run a justice-based restaurant, and their recent (controversial) Chef's Table feature. This one is particularly good. podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/t...

This weekend marked the first Thinking Food colloquium, the materialization of a question I have been mulling over since I was a grad student. How can I, as a scholar of the early modern past, contribute to addressing the inequities in our food systems and cultures?
