Pretty new here, would love to connect with fellow academics, particularly in #English / #litstudies / #disabilitystudies but would appreciate connections in any field!

Also, any Academic Advisors out there?

We're homeschooling kiddo at the moment (it's a whole thing) and found this lesson plan for teaching figurative language, symbolism, and critical thinking through Kendrick's Superbowl performance. I wish we did stuff like this when I was in primary school.

Robert Fergusson (1750–1774) died #OTD, 17 Oct, aged just 24. Notable for his poetry in both Scots & English, his works include “Auld Reikie”, “The Daft Days”, & “Hallow Fair”. His legacies are broad, from the literary & cultural to the medical.

A head and shoulders portrait in oils of Robert Fergusson by Alexander Runciman (1736–1785). Runciman has painted his friend, a young poet, lost in creative thought. His exaggerated features – huge eyes, full lips – suggest brilliance and intensity.
