Exotic Covers: From Medieval Monks to Modern Publishing, DNA Offers a Tantalising Twist
Okay, nothing new there, of course. Except that there's a DNA twist, as Archaeology Magazine explains, that make this a perfect story for a holistic industry…

I've written a guest post on the world famous Ladybird Books on 'Lynne about Loughborough', the wonderful blog curated by local historian Lynne Dyer. The post tells the unusual history of how a local jobbing printer in an Eastmidlands market town became a global publisher.

For those interested, ‘Publishing in a Medieval Monastery: The View from Twelfth-Century Engelberg’ by Ben Pohl is free to access until the 20th of July from Cambridge University Press.
‘This Element contributes to the burgeoning field of medieval publishing studies with a case study of the books produced at the Benedictine monastery of Engelberg under its celebrated twelfth-century abbot, Frowin (1143–78). Frowin was the first abbot of Engelberg whose book provision policy relied on domestic production serviced by an internal scribal workforce, and his tenure marked the first major expansion of the community's library. This Element's in-depth discussion of nearly forty colophons inscribed in the books made for this library during Frowin's transformative abbacy offers a fresh perspective on monastic publishing practice in the twelfth century by directing our view to a mode of publication that has received only limited attention in scholarship to date.’

In that spirit: today, I'm using the shell to count things in a graph of contributors to edited collections in British #theology (1918- 99).
Main finding so far: the proportion of essays by parish ministers falls over the period; staff of seminaries and theological colleges also feature less and less.
Their place is taken by university people: a sixth of the graph before 1945, nearly half in the period after 1975. A discipline being professionalised.
