Enjoy my story of an impossible encounter, where Aby Warburg and Shimomura Toratarō got off linear timelines. Where San Francisco became next-door to Yokohama. Where WWII Japan’s ‘overcoming modernity (近代の超克)’ reworked #Astrology in #EarlyModern Europe. #History #HistoryOfArt #HistSci #PhilHist 🗃️

“In the late 1960s, Dr. Rossiter was working on her Ph.D. at Yale, when a comment from one of her male professors puzzled her. Who, she had asked, were the women in science? There were none, he said. Another professor mumbled something about Marie Curie being the exception.”🙃

Also congratulations 👏 to the two honourable mentions:

And

I’m very happy to announce that I’ve been awarded an IRFD Starting Grant for the project “Sovereign Flowers: Flora Danica and the Emergence of the National Flora, 1750–1900.” Hooray! The project allows me to build a small research group of a PhD student and a postdoc at Aarhus University (@au.dk).

This is getting close to 150K signatures now. It might not do anything, but it will serve as evidence for the future that the UK government were aware of the opposition of its own people to its complicity in the Israeli genocide on Gaza & the fact that it did nothing to stop it.
