In sincerity I did log on for a reason. A new issue of the Journal of Medieval and Early Modern Studies is out, edited by colleague/friend Marcel Elias. It's about how to do postcolonial medieval studies bigger and better. You'll like it. (I'm in there). Go read.

I do recommend this book for a start: www.routledge.com/Nordic-Latin....

Also this one: novus.no/products/102....
Nordic Latin Manuscript Fragments: The Destruction and Reconstruction of Medieval Books
Much of what is known about the past often rests upon the chance survival of objects and texts. Nowhere is this better illustrated than in the fragments of medieval manuscripts re-used as bookbindings...

I'll take a look. In my astrolabe piece, I argued that Sæmund Sigfússon (fl. 1056–1133) brought astrolabe texts from Lotharingia to Iceland. Right now, I'm thinking about similar connections to Saxony in the 12th century.

Perfect, thank you so much! Answers that refer to literature are the best, especially since of the three, I am only familiar with Gullicks' work (but on English scriptoria).

Is it possible to attribute Danish, or any Scandinavian, manuscripts to specific scriptoria on the basis of their hands? Or is this difficult?

Our aphorism for the "Übergangszeit":

ἐν τῇσιν ὥρῃσιν, ὅταν τῆς αὐτῆς ἡμέρης ὁτὲ μὲν θάλπος, ὁτὲ δὲ ψῦχος γένηται, φθινοπωρινὰ τὰ νουσήματα προσδέχεσθαι χρή. (III.4)

"When during the seasons there is now heat, then cold on the same day, one must expect diseases to be autumnal."

Schwören Ärzte heute noch diesen Eid, in dem es bspw. heißt "Ich werde nicht schneiden, sogar Steinleidende nicht, sondern werde das den Männern überlassen, die dieses Handwerk ausüben"? (Damit wären Chirurgen ja schon einmal raus...)

Nothing is certain anymore. I sometimes wonder what would happen if they took Google Books away from us.

Der Querschnittsbereich Geschichte, Theorie, Ethik der Medizin. Seit 2002 ist vorgesehen, dass alle Medizinstudierenden in Deutschland darin einen benoteten Kurs absolvieren sollen. Bereits seit den 1970ern war Medizingeschichte Teil des Studiums, die Beschäftigung mit Ethik ist daraus erwachsen.

Another gem - literally speaking this time - from today's trip to Sorø. The ring found in the grave of Archbishop Absalon of Lund (r.1177-92). The stone is a Sri Lanka sapphire, testifying to the wide reach of Afro-Eurasian trade networks in the Middle Ages.
A gold ring with a flat pyramidical top in which is inlaid a violet sapphire.
