Two Interviews with Peter Head

Ferdie Mulder recently sat down with Peter Head for a recorded interview and he has now posted the video. The geese get a bit excited at points, but don’t let that spoil it for you. The second video is more focused on textual criticism and papyrology, but do not miss the point in the first video where there is a soft giggle at the suggestion that Dr. Head has supervised some excellent PhD students. Aside from that, I quite enjoyed these. Thanks, Ferdie!

Should the Next NA/UBS Editions Use Numbers for Majuscules?

 Florian Voss asks on Twitter. What say you?

What would you think if the new editions of the #nestlealand (NA29) and the #UBSGNT (UBS6) used numbers for all majuscules instead of letters, as it is now the case in individual cases (e.g., 01 instead of ℵ)?

I say yes despite the one drawback. And while we’re at it, let’s get rid of the Gothic letters too.
