📢New on our blog! 'DRI Focus on: #Learning in Lockdown'. This post emphasises that we shouldn't feel pressured to 'use the two hours that we usually spend on a sweaty train' productively. Having said this, there's a wealth of new learning resources: https://t.co/LSkaBcYGUSpic.twitter.com/AXwXd2Noz6
Early Irish professional poets were usually men but there were exceptions such as Úallach banfhili (female poet) of Ireland who lived in the 10th century; I used her death notice for the cover of my monograph #PoetryDayIRL
