Curating “Illuminated and Unsettled” Houghton Library Pop-up Exhibition

Rob Brown and I co-curated this exhibition for the Morton W. Bloomfield Conference in honor of James Simpson, with the support of Peter X. Accardo, Mitch Nakaue and other Houghton staff. Reflecting Simpson’s work to challenge “medieval” and “early modern” periodization, objects on display included an alleged fragment of printer William Caxton’s house.
