"iuliana legit lebrem estum; iuliana fecit"
little wonderful surprise breaking the monotony of surveying dozens of manuscripts for research purposes. iuliana has read this book; iuliana has done [this]; and i, like iuliana, was reading this book too, centuries and centuries later. this signum of her passage on earth, of partaking in an intellectual activity as a medieval woman moves me to tears. to the women reading in the past, in the present and the future... my heart goes out to you
