#MedievalTwitter A request. Could you share this "Mother of All Pandemics" Bibliography with the subject librarian at your institution? docs.google.com/document/d/1…. (That goes for adjuncting folk, too.) It's likely that your libraries already have a core collection. Add to them now!

Wonderful that @FrHenryDaniel's Liber Uricrisiarum (Book of Urinalysis) has appeared. e-book available now (utorontopress.com/us/liber-u…); hardback coming in May. Henry Daniel was a 14thC English friar (may have lived thru the Black Death). Urines were main diagnostic tool of his day.

This discussion of earwax prompted us to take a look at what Daniel has to say about it. He uses two words to refer to earwax: "sap" and "gound". "sap" refers strictly to ear gunk "gound" refers to both eye and ear gunk

To get rid of eye gunk: use milk of the wild endive, of course! "Melk of þe wilde endif fordoth gownde in þe eyʒyn."

Slightly less appealing is this alternative remedy for eye-gunk: "Also þe vryn [of a child] coct with [wyn canc.] hony in a vessel bras fordoth gowndyng of eyne."
Did you know that there was no Feb. 29 during leap year in the Middle Ages?

This is the same counting principle as “on the third day he rose again from the dead” – from Good Friday to Easter Sunday are three days inclusive.
