Happy Sunday

Look what I bought from Amazon, Garfield Academic Diary for mid year 2026-2027.

It's mainly for kids but I can't resist and used to write a diary as kid.

First published in 2016, and read by me since then on a regular basis, I feel it's time for @academicdiary.bsky.social important #AcademicDiary again

Academic Diary - Les Back | Goldsmiths Press share.google/GDd3fj4SL2rN...

Recently I've been delving into some books and I'd like to recommend one by Darin Stephanov, "Ruler Visibility and Popular Belonging in the Ottoman Empire, 1808–1908"
One of the few works that inspired me a lot in terms of writing/planning and use of sources.

A wonderful piece ! Thankyou!

A *lot* has happened since #AcademicDiary was published. But I still cherish a great deal of your book's insights 😊

On the academic agenda today: student feedback meetings; BSECS exec meeting + report on EDI survey; lecture prep for my lecture on Swift tomorrow; working on Samuel Johnson’s definition of ‘queer’ for chp am writing. What’s everyone else up to? #AcademicDiary

The value of academic writing is the attention it pays to the arcane [...] that would otherwise be lost in the cacophony of contemporary culture ('Writing and Scholastic Style', p. 211)

Les Back's wonderful book is also available #OpenAccess:

sorry for anyone I missed out ... I may try another round ... but I'm on the edge of my technical capabilities here!

Provocative keynote by @AcademicDiary at #SAIConf2022 today, interrogating the tensions of ‘home’ & belonging in a critical & respectful way. Particularly like the idea of ‘Sociology as a vocation in attentiveness’ @Soc_Assoc_Ire

"sociologists learn [...] to understand society through their engagement with music. [...] For sociologists, involvement in music making is also an incitement to get off campus and encounter an alternative world of value and values." by Les Back #AcademicDiary

A day that turned out to be much more busy than expected, and the heat is not helping that much... still, luckily, I had some extra time to prepare for the meetings of tomorrow and I will take the time between them to write... #AcademicDiary #AcademicSky #TimeManagement
