I don't think I've seen one of these, so: my attempt at an early modern lit starter pack! (Plus some C18 people because I've decided to go on the offence and y'all are part of long C17 now.)
Apologies for any omissions / unwanted inclusions -- if you want on or off let me know!

My latest article is published in Celtica journal 35 this week on 'PINE, YEW, and FIR in Medieval Welsh sources'! 🥳
For my first ever bsky post, I shall attempt a thread about some of the cool stuff I found... 🧵 #CelticStudies #MedievalStudies
Move over, Aphra Behn (not really), I’ve got a new favourite early modern ‘commercial’ female playwright: Alice Mustian!

If anybody has any recommendations on reading/resources on the Hanseatic League or early English mercantilism, it would be much appreciated! It seems my PhD proposal research has drawn me back to trade 🥴
Jack Doyle and I put together a reading list for a workshop on Teaching Trans History that we ran at the Oxford History Faculty last week (featuring Kit Heyam as our wonderful guest speaker). Here's the reading list! docs.google.com/document/d/1...
This list is incredibly helpful! Thanks so much for sharing it here, and for the care and thoughtfulness that clearly went into its making.
Congratulations!! The cover looks beautiful, and I am very much looking forward to reading the book!!
