Dear all,
This week's session is something of a new departure for the Text-Critical Thursdays series.
2020 marks the 75th anniversary of the founding of the Vetus Latina Institute at the Archabbey of Beuron in Germany. This organisation is responsible for developing and publishing the Vetus Latina editions of the Old Latin version(s) of both Old and New Testaments, which offer important evidence for their early textual history.
The textual criticism seminar of the SNTS had planned a round table celebrating the work of the Institute as one of the sessions for the Annual Meeting which was to have been held in Rome this summer. I’m delighted that all the original panellists have agreed to participate in this online replacement, along with additional distinguished colleagues who would not otherwise have been present. This will be a unique ‘oral history’ of this Institute, its activity and its directors.
Join us at the customary time on Thursday, 28th May (1500 UTC, corresponding to 0800 CA, 1000 TX, 1100 DC, 1600 UK, 1700 DE IT NL CH SE …), using the following Zoom link:

Normal rules apply (as below). After the initial powerpoint, you may find that you prefer to use ‘Gallery View’ rather than ‘Speaker View’ this week, in order to see all the panellists.
I’m also aware that, in recent weeks, the final questions have gone on beyond the standard one hour: please don’t be embarrassed to leave the meeting before it has finished if you have another engagement. At the same time, my sense is that that those who are able to stay longer appreciate the opportunity for a more extended question session.
It is intended to record this session for those unable to be present. Please note that last week’s recordings will be deleted tomorrow, in order to make space for this week.
Procedural information
Participants wishing to ask a question should note this in the Chat window or by using the ‘Raise Hand’ button in the Participants window after the presentation. (You can also submit questions in advance by email to me or the presenters.) The host will invite questions: in order to keep to advertised timings, it may not be possible for all questions to be asked during the course of the session. You may find that you need to click on the ‘enable computer audio’ function when you join the meeting in order to receive the audio stream.
All participants are expected to behave in accordance with norms for participation in academic conferences, and in particular are asked to note the following:
1. Only the host and presenters may share their screens.
2. All audio will be muted during the presentation, except for presenters and those who are invited to ask questions.
3. Participants are expected to identify themselves by their real names.
4. Participants are welcome to have their video feed on and use the chat facility to make comments (e.g. if there are any technical issues or to signal after the paper that they want to ask a question) but inappropriate comments or behaviour will lead to immediate removal from the meeting and possible exclusion from future meetings.
5. Participants should not record presentations in audio or video. When presenters have agreed, the host will make a recording of the meeting. This will be indicated in the interface, and participants should note that their video and chat contributions may also form part of this recording.
Any questions before or during the meeting may be sent by email to [log in to unmask]
Best wishes,
Hugh Houghton
