Pandemic uncertainty is getting to academics everywhere.
Rather than spend another Saturday afternoon worrying about the fact that we don't know how we'll be teaching in 2020-2021, I decided to sort out my mask collection.
A

I teach British history in the English department at @LettresSorbonne, so the first mask I sewed was this one. Just so no-one gets confused.

It's hard to do more British in fabric choices than @LibertyLondon small-scale floral, so I needed one of those!

Actually, even better: a @LibertyLondon fabric with teacups and teapots on it!

I teach a first-year class on Britain, 1485-1815, but the introduction starts with the Norman conquest, so this was the obvious choice!

We then continue with a class of high-speed history on social and cultural aspects of the English Middle Ages, which I will be teaching in this mask

For the second-years, I teach a class on the social, political and cultural history of the 19th century. Who better than William Morris!

I teach both a third-year optional course and several sessions for masters students on digital skills, #digitalhumanities, etc. and I will now be suitably attired for that as well!

Like all my colleagues, I do a fair load of exam invigilating and other test supervision. This feels suitable!

I fear this year will not leave much time for research, but at least for First World War seminar sessions, I shall be sporting this number featuring a British trench map of the Somme

Finally, my admin responsabilities as second in command of the department will mean a fair amount of pastoral care, cheering everyone up and nothing better for that than cats!

Forgot to say these were made following this pattern
I've tried quite a few and really like this one as a compromise of close-fitting, but with a little room in front of nose/mouth and not overly involved as far as sewing/cutting out is concerned.
