12/7: launching

...a student into a project in London, looking at illuminated manuscripts of the Divine Liturgy of John Chrysostom at the British Library.  The project has been a year in the making--designing it, writing a proposal to get it funded, doing a variety of preparatory work. Today we had our last meeting before she gets on a plane on Monday.  I appreciated the chance/excuse to spend time with the Divine Liturgy's Greek myself over the past few months (the adjectives are amazing!), and I'm excited to hear how her project goes.
