Royal Historical Society lecture: Dangerous Journeys: Framing Women’s Movement in the Medieval World YouTube video by Royal Historical Society

And if you're teaching medieval history & would like to include the other half of the population, Dr Natasha Hodgson of Nottingham Trent's Royal Historical Society lecture, 'Royal Historical Society lecture: Dangerous Journeys: Framing Women’s Movement in the Medieval World' is free to view. 2/2

Courtyard: Maid & child fetching things from outdoor larder while housewife stands in the passage keeping an eye on the street. Love how the red shutter seems hinged to the edge of the painting, by Pieter de Hooch in 1658.

‘From her pen sprang unforgettable females’: 16th-century Spanish author’s knight’s tale given reboot Beatriz Bernal’s pioneering novel features brave, chivalrous women who ride dragons and her adapter wants his illustrated version to reach young readers

'Though completely eclipsed by Don Quixote, Cristalián de España, which was first published in 1545, has a unique claim to fame. Its 800 pages, bristling with swords, sorcerers, dragons and damsels, make up the earliest known work by a female Spanish novelist.' 1/2

Book cover fro Hamnet by Maggie O'Farrell. Image is a white letter H with golden fern leaves and small animals around it, as well as sumac berries on a dark blue background.

'Hamnet' by Maggie O'Farrell.

A very long, often beautiful exploration of the grief parents feel at the death of a child. While the story takes pains to never say that this is about William Shakespeare, it's clearly about the Bard & his witchy wife, Agnes(Anne).

A lovely book about surviving the real and metaphorical winters of our lives. Ideally read while resting in a cozy nest with an endless cup of hot tea at hand and a storm raging outside. #booksky #bookrecommendations #nonfiction #memoir

A white male hand holding a copy of 'The Gift of Not Belonging' by Rami Kaminski, in front of a curtain with a 1950s style pattern.

This book is about people like me—probably the first time a psychologist has identified my 'type' of person. It should be a fascinating read for anyone.

Loving the story-telling style of this sort-of-history book so far. 🇳🇱 Bit of an odd combo - backdrop of the idyllic Dutch towns with calming windmills against the roar of Bruce Dickinson. Northern Europe theme to both I guess.

The eBook is finally live on AZ (other retailers to follow) It's the publisher's first book, and there is a learning curve. Still, those who can't afford to spring for a paperback can now pick up the eBook. Really proud of this one.

116 years ago a bunch of working class women changed the world because they got together and fought for their rights. Their fight is still our fight.
