I’ve been watching the various videos of Irving Finkel, a curator at the British Museum, because he is delightful to listen to. His programs make for excellent background sanity keeping. Today, I learned about his Great Diary Project. Needless to say, I want to jump on a plane and go spend the next year reading diaries. Check out the Great Diary Project.
Here is the video that popped up in the feed, catching my attention: https://youtu.be/X0hi2Q3TAK8
It would be interesting to know if there is a similar project in the US.
I was thinking the same thing.
Thank you for the introduction to Irving Finkel. What an interesting lecturer. I will be looking for additional lectures by him in the future.
