#Reformazing - schöner Nachmittag und Abend in Genf mit "Female Reformation" und spannender Diskussion. Danke @ihr-geneva.bsky.social @uelizahnd.bsky.social für die Einladung und Gastfreundschaft!
A smiling woman holds a sign that reads: Trump is a Tulip Totally Depraved Unbelievably Corrupt Lawless Illegal Warmongering Pedophile In the background people are marching down the street with signs under a brilliant blue sky.
I think my sign for the St. Louis No Kings protest is pretty #reformazing
The Journal of Religious History is seeking expressions of interest in the role of co-editor of the Journal to work alongside Dr Celeste McNamara. ... The position would run for three years, subject to a one-year probationary period, with potential for renewal for a second term, if so desired. The JRH is published by Wiley and engages an Editorial Manager (Professor Paul Watt) to work on practical matters relating to the Journal, as well as benefiting from support from Wiley staff and an international editorial board. While the position is a voluntary one, the agreement between Wiley and the Religious History Association may allow for limited travel support each year to promote the journal, subject to the approval of the RHA executive committee. The tasks involved in editing JRH vary considerably from week to week – some weeks we are only required to answer a few emails, other weeks require a full day’s work making decisions on articles and proofreading. On average, each editor probably spends 4-6 hours per fortnight on the role. The main tasks involved are: - representing the Journal at appropriate events - attending committee meetings of the Religious History Association to report on the JRH - working with the Editorial Manager to make initial decisions about sending articles for review - keeping the database of reviewers updated - making decisions on each article based on reviewers’ recommendations - corresponding with authors about these decisions - checking revisions made by authors - proofreading articles for Early View - proofreading and approving each issue (which has been copyedited by a professional copyeditor) - approving the table of contents - selecting an image for the cover - shortlisting articles for the annual prize Applications (a letter outlining qualifications, experience and fit with the Journal and Association’s general remit, and a brief CV) should be submitted by May 1, 2026, to: Professor Megan Cassidy-Welch mcassidywelch@divinity.edu.au

How wonderful! Scott is working on a much-anticipated biography of Theodore Beza. He told me at CSSC that he's written about three-quarters of it. It will no doubt be #reformazing.

Much to mock in this saccharine fantasy but the claim that the reformation is identifiably English is extremely funny to me
A hot new #reformazing take for sure
This will be a good read.

Reposting this. I have two scholars for this panel so far and need a third. If you're doing work work on the 1570s and want to be in Chicago next October, please send me a DM.
#reformazing
I'm hoping to propose a panel for the SCS on the 1570s, that most pivotal decade in the later Reformation. If you're interested in joining me, send me a DM. #reformazing
My Reformation class wrestled with double predestination just last week. It was fun to watch the wheels turn in the students' heads as they puzzled out all the doctrine's implications. It was a lively discussion.
#reformazing
Btw I'm putting together a CFP and eventually some panels for #scsc26 on "the colonial reformations" if anyone is interested/has ideas. #reformazing
oh, #Reformazing gang, when a eighteenth-century female Quaker who is clearly teaching in a school refers to *some* (not all) other Quaker women as 'sisters' but they're clearly not her biological sisters, is there anything to be inferred from that?
👀 @naomipullin.bsky.social, any idea?
Melancthon is bearing an uncanny resemblance to Conrad Veidt (Major Strasser) in "Casablanca" in this portrait. #reformazing
The final couple of days - still time to submit a proposal! #churchhistory #reformazing #earlymodern #nuntastic
Splendid: those colleagues have every reason to envy the #Reformazing (excellent moniker, to boot)!
The #Reformazing gang has all the best tools; once we've got the students in our classes we've got them. That's why our non-reformazing colleagues don't want us having compulsory modules.
Did my duty as #Reformazing lecturer and introduced the First Years to the Luther Insult Generator.
So making sure you remember to get your dose of insults in for the day as well, #Skystorians: ergofabulous.org/luther/
