Ancient Exchanges Publishes "Threads"

Monday, August 7, 2023
Ancient Exchanges, an online journal devoted to literary translations of ancient texts, has published their sixth issue, "Threads." "What is the difference between a text and a textile? Originating in the same Latin root meaning “weave,” the two words in English bear a canny resemblance. As material phenomena, their similarities abound: both are woven into being from disparate threads, resulting in a product that is more than the sum of their parts, bearing visual and tactile significance."                 from "Letter from the Editors"
