Exeter Cathedral Fall 2022

I recently visited Exeter Cathedral so I figured I would post some photos I took! These photos are in no particular order. They feature multiple different aspects of the cathedral.

Update 10/9/2022

As you can tell, I have not been incredibly active in the year 2022 compared to other years. A lot of stuff has happened, but I’m finally in grad school where I am doing my masters in Medieval Studies. Whoo!

This means that while I have less time to do stuff, I am finally being taught by professional medievalists instead of doing research on my own. This means I have A LOT more access to resources that are not available to anyone outside of academia. While I like to include sources on my blog that anyone can access, I will be including the more academic sources for blog posts in the future.

My plan for the upcoming months is to write what I will call “Summary Posts.”

A summary post will basically be me compiling things I’ve learned in classes without too much detail and explanation. These posts are mostly for me so I can engage with the texts more, thus giving me another opportunity to better remember what I learned. However, I think people will find them interesting. As always, I will include the sources of where I got the information.

I’m optimistic for the future of this blog!
