Jan Assmann was an outstanding example of a gentle human being, and a major contributor to broader issues related to scholarship, and our time, from the platform of philology and a so-called small discipline. zeit.de/kultur/2024-02…
HBO's The Wire is rightly lauded for its vivid & realistic depiction of urban decay. But you might not notice that under the surface it is also a subtle exposition on Mohist & Legalist challenges to Confucian orthodoxy as witnessed during China's turbulent Warring States era:
This is a nice short video on Muhammad Amīn al-Khānjī and his family’s role in the history of publishing and the Islamic manuscript trade.

After two years of collating and analyzing nearly a thousand textual variants of Ṣaḥīḥ al-Bukhārī, comparing its notable manuscripts, and tracing its centuries-long transmission history, my book on the textual integrity of the Ṣaḥīḥ will be available soon, in-shā-Allāh.

Universities are, ultimately, conservative, interested in preserving the status quo.
NYU and Columbia both use their history of student radicalism as branding exercises to market themselves to the very students they are now unleashing the cops on. Selling themselves as Social Justice University and bragging about their “radical history” is part of their PR. 3/

@AdamMantine Adjuncts usually do not have health care. (Health care costs money.) And the physical time spent in the classroom is a fraction of the amount of time one spends doing the bare minimum requirements of the job (lesson prep, grading, commuting between different colleges, etc.)
Universities are funny. Hey what if we took a medieval institution for training priests and aristocrats and combined it w a hedge fund, sports franchise and resort for teenagers Oh and it'll be the backbone for fundamental research for our entire civilization

Trust me, no job will ever love you back. The free market is no bed of roses, but if you're in academia you're always already (lol) in the free market, you're just in one of its funkiest, most exploitative, low-information broom closets. There are much less foul alternatives. END
