To share with you the excitement (sarc) of my essay on the emergence of the codex: Did you know the roll of Aristotle's Constitution of the Athenians (there is only one copy) is written on the back of a roll containing agricultural accounts?

I'm not joking. That's the highlight of the essay.

*snorts* The joys of writing essays about really exciting things. Reminds me of a term paper I had to write in medieval history about the wedding document of Princess Theophano. The highlight there was to discuss the placing of the seal. *facepalm* In times like these even ironing looked like a good alternative:-)
