Coin of Queen Cynethryth of Mercia. Circa 780 CE. Wife of King Offa of Mercia.

Cynethryth is the only Anglo-Saxon queen consort to appear on coinage, and the only queen to appear on coinage in the early Medieval West. Cynethryth appears as a witness to charters and her image on her coins closely follows examples of coins of Roman Empresses. She was likely mother to the heir of Mercia, Ecgfrith, before she began to appear on coins. She was patroness to Chertsey Abbey was was recognized in letters as queen by Pope Adrian I.

After Offa’s death, Cynethryth became Abbess of Cookham and controlled the church at Bedford where Offa was buried, maintaining authority in religious circumstances, though she took no further part in politics. Her son, Ecgfrith, died after only 141 days on the throne, leaving Cynethryth without connections to the royal house of Mercia.

These are the books I’ve ordered few weeks ago, I’m already excited! I also joined an online book club and our first read of the month is a classic by Ovid, the myth of Icarus and Daedalus from the metamorphoses (book viii). I knew this poem already because I’m a Greek-Roman mythology enthusiastic but I’ve never read it before now and I admit it was such a good reading! I’m gonna buy the physical book soon because I can’t wait to read more of Ovid’s poems.

Spent the morning organising, now I’m buckling down to study for my exams. I submitted my last essay of the semester last night, and now I have two exams over the next 10 days (how amazing is that?) before I finish the semester 😊✨

I’ve recently read Balzac’s Lilly of the Valley and surprisingly really enjoyed it. Also a cool photo from Berlin, my friend managed to capture!!

04.03.2020; online university = lots of planning.

i have also applied to a lot of jobs lately and i haven't had any positive responses yet. that's kind of taking a toll on my self-worth. i'm thinking about doing a video-cv to differentiate me from other candidates, but that will take a lot of work. i guess i'll tell you how that goes!
