A colourful image of a stained-glass window with three human figures. A figure in a blue robe with yellow halo is kneeling in front of two old men with long beards and head-wraps. One of the old men is pointing to a passage in a book on his lap. Pieces of glass in the faces of all three figures are missing due to vandalism.

Awful news from Wales, the St Fagan's Museum has been broken into and prehistoric goldwork has been taken. Its painful to think what objects might now be at risk. Thoughts with the museum team who must be devastated, all speed to the police and a curse on the crooks.

New book publication ❗ 📖

Last month, my first monograph was published by the Académie royale de Belgique.

It is a slightly reworked version of my PhD, focusing on the grain prices and the grain economy of 14th-C Flanders 🌿

Who did what in early modern England?

New #OpenAccess book, 'The Experience of Work in Early Modern England' by @jwhittle.bsky.social, @markhailwood.bsky.social, @hkrobb.bsky.social & @aucointaylor.bsky.social, based on thousands of #EarlyModern court depositions 🗃️

Read it: doi.org/10.1017/9781...


This book applies the innovative work-task approach to the history of work, which captures the contribution of all workers and types of work to the early modern economy. Drawing on tens of thousands of court depositions, the authors analyse the individual tasks that made up everyday work for women and men, shedding new light on the gender division of labour, and the ways in which time, space, age and marital status shaped sixteenth and seventeenth-century working life. Combining qualitative and quantitative analysis, the book deepens our understanding of the preindustrial economy, and calls for us to rethink not only who did what, but also the implications of these findings for major debates about structural change, the nature and extent of paid work, and what has been lost as well as gained over the past three centuries of economic development. This title is also available as open access on Cambridge Core.

Ah, ‘fermeture exceptionnelle’ of the Nantes municipal archives, became the slogan of my PhD research. Hand-written, cellotaped to the door on an ad hoc basis during the 2 months I worked there! 1985. The archive was and still is on the rue d’enfer.

Happy days!

Trying to search for info on the use of headstones and footstones in Sussex, and all I get are business websites trying to sell a headstone to me. Not yet, people!!! Can anyone share info with me about these, and when they became popular? Photo is from Seaford's St. Leonard's Churchyard.
Photo of three graves in a row, with large headstones and small footnotes, joined together by a vertical centre piece. The stones are too weathered to read names or dates.

Just tried the free Transkribus site with poor results. Is the paid subscription any better for 17th century handwriting? What about 19th century wills?

In this month's blogpost, Dr Emily Betz writes about anti-Quaker propaganda.

Using the language of #medicine, opponents of #Quaker beliefs attempted to paint them as mentally unstable, their understandings of faith less spiritual revelations than medical complications.

The country seems angry and full of hatred, the sky is dark and full of rain, so I think I’ll pop on some jazz, have an ale and read about the fascinating archaeology of Cranborne Chase this evening.

An absolute masterclass from UK Quakers on how organisations of all kinds can stand up for the rights and safety of trans people, even post Supreme Court ruling and with all of the EHRC's cruelties:

Please enjoy 2 minutes and 12 seconds of Jeremy enjoying a prickly pear. (Note: it switches from delightful ASMR to lots of dog panting at about the one minute mark, when Octopus Moonshine finds us.)
