Look how pretty she is! I received my author copies of /Practices & Narratives of Early Modern Piracy/ today (officially published by @amsterdamupress.bsky.social on Monday). Will post more about individual chapters (including my own) next week - in the meantime, do ask your library to order a copy!

My mother complains about her new glasses because they make her look all wrinkly when she looks in the mirror now. Love her.

Rund ums Thema #Arbeitszeit kursieren hartnäckige Annahmen, die den Arbeits- und Familienalltag prägen und politische Diskussionen befeuern.
Drei Bamberger Forschende haben diese Mythen wissenschaftlich untersucht. Ihre fundierten Erkenntnisse widerlegen diese:

Heute ist #mangaday 2025 und ich habe mit der 9jährigen über 20 eingesammelt. Jetzt fischen wir mal die überhaupt nicht altersgerechten raus (die kriegt die große Schwester), aber das Kind ist jetzt schon sehr glücklich.

Cuts to and closures of university presses are 100% part of the separation (or as @mattseybold.bsky.social has called it "unbundling") of research and teaching in the humanities and the devaluation of both quite frankly--in this case at the expense of the career training admin claims to care about.

"Bucknell has decided to close its highly respected, decades-old UP in June 2026. The stated reason? The press serves scholars, not Bucknell undergrads. Bucknell undergrads—& some grad students as well—disagree." FANTASTIC piece on BUP's student internship program. networks.h-net.org/group/discus...

It's September and I have already ordered advent calendars for every family member who wants one (including myself) - who even am I?

Die Hand, die die English Studies hält, hat nur vier Finger, wahrscheinlich eine Metapher für irgendwas

Today is the 846th anniversary of the death of Hildegard of Bingen: saint, abbess, composer, writer, visionary, but best known of course for once seeing the Gruffalo appearing from the Bride of Christ’s, um...
Bride of Christ in Hildegard of Bingen's Scivias, Book III. Image shows a woman in medieval dress. A grotesque beast with red eyes, pointed ears, and large teeth is emerging from between her legs
