My chapter in Refashioning the Renaissance edited by @paulahohti.bsky.social is out: doi.org/10.7765/9781...
The whole volume is open access (+ tons of pictures)!
I'm feeling conflicted, because I wrote it a long time ago, but still nice to see things appear in print.

"Women full professors are 19% more likely than men at the same career stage to leave academia, as compared with 6% for women assistant professors and 10% for associates."
Thanks, I'll check it out!
I saw it last night and absolutely loved it! The themes, the actors, the dress, the space. Fantastic!
Good morning! Looking for suggestions from the #earlymodern hive mind. For my undergrad history seminar I am looking for a good text in 🇩🇪/🇬🇧, broadly related to eating&drinking from 1500 to 1800, to analyse scholarly articles (question/argument, previous research, sources, method, results). Thanks!

Funny 'cause it's true 🥲
I really hope you're right!
That's what's wrong with academia. They should be so lucky to have her.
A friend had a job interview where she had to present her planned PhD project (interesting, original, ambitious). She was met by a panel of five profs from the project. Two minutes into her presentation one prof fell asleep. One of her questions was met with a silly joke and laughs from the panel.

This is amazing. A Lithuanian researcher, Ernesta Kazakėnaitė, has identified the earliest surviving manuscript in a Sámi language: ojs.utlib.ee/index.php/je...
Oops, ich wollte natürlich von Donnerstag bis Samstag schreiben.
Dieses Jahr fand der Arbeitstagung der AG Frühe Neuzeit im September von Donnerstag bis Freitag statt. Freitag war Weltkindertag (Feiertag in Thüringen) und Samstag ist ja, Samstag. Mit zwei "freiberuflichen" Eltern und ohne Großeltern in der Nähe war das die reine Freude 🙃
