Our second Summer Loeb Draw! All five volumes of Plautus' comedies, containing 21 plays edited by one of the great Classicists of our age. To enter, just retweet this message and we'll draw a random follower from the list on Friday 21 June! Anyone can enter, so good luck to all.
Great (free!) opportunity for Scotland-based poets to work with @atarbuck, @SebMacV, and Library curators (including a JNR editor!) to engage with medieval and early modern poetry about Scotland's places, and with the National Library's collections.
