Street sign reading "Halleck Street" against a red tile roof with part of a tree in the corner

I went to #RenSA26 to talk about Lanyer, so it seems appropriate that I spotted this sign channeling Simon Forman in the Presidio.

Me presenting my research on Lucretia and Cleopatra in early modern printing emblems!

Presented at @rsaorg.bsky.social on Lucretia and Cleopatra in early modern printing emblems. #RSA26, you were so good to me! #rensa26

A fantastic time (as always) at #RenSA26 San Francisco. Heard some great papers, saw friends and colleagues, and met interesting people. Exhausting + invigorating? Possible. #earlymodern #Renaissance #womenshistory #diplomacyhistory #earlymodernwomen

Great to see our new series on Courts and Courtiers plkugged so strongly on the #RenSA26 app by @brepols.net and tovsee our first three books out in the world.

If anyone at #rensa26 found a coat with a print of red flowers on a white background, it's mine and I miss it dearly.

In today's #dukesandprinces, #RenSA26 conference edition, we attend three fascinating papers about Neopolitan princes, including Caraffa, including this erudite princess, Livia Doria.

Richard Kagan introducing our roundtable commemorating Katie Harris and reflecting on a life of scholarship. #RenSA26 @rsaorg.bsky.social

A conference book table close-up with standing books. At the centre is HUMANS: A MONSTROUS HISTORY: A bright red hardback with a silvery, oval mirror with a black frame of fictional monsters, and yellow and red lettering.

HUMANS: A MONSTROUS HISTORY in the wild - at #RenSA26! Head over to the Scholar's Choice table in the book display to check it out - display copy not yet reserved I see!

Gorgeous picture courtesy of Asa Mittman (go hear him in two panels!).

I always find the sessions *not* directly within my own area of expertise the most generative. #RenSA26

Always good to see witches infiltrating the #RenSA26 @rsaorg.bsky.social. It wasn't too long ago that the only demons were Platonic ones. There will be some excellent @emodir.bsky.social panels tomorrow!

If you like Margaret Cavendish and you’re not afraid of witches, come see my talk at #RenSA26! @rsaorg.bsky.social

Happy #RenSA26 to all who's attending! Thanks to the amazing organizers at @rsaorg.bsky.social. We are excited for everyone's work!!!

I'm not at #RenSA26 because "waves hands in the air" from across the pond, but if you're hungry for maps or monsters, my buddy Asa Mittman is in the house for once! Go listen to Asa and also to Shanti Giovanetti-Singh, Stephanie Leitch, Kathleen Long (@kplong1616.bsky.social), and Ricardo Padrón.

Second paper by Mateusz Falkowski on humanism and humanist practices around the Council of Trent, emphasizing the role of citation and record keeping. #RenSA26

Its pouring in my neighborhood, but cresting the hill to take 5yo to school, I saw the sun shining on San Francisco. I dunno that I've ever been more pleased to see that sight. #rensa26

And we're off @rsaorg.bsky.social #RenSA26. My first paper is Jennifer Mara DeSilva on enslaved people in Florence and their presence in baptism records. #earlymodern

Ah, and don't forget to enjoy #RenSA26 and #SanFrancisco on my behalf! 😎🌉

If you are at #RenSA26 in #SanFrancisco, don't miss @emodir.bsky.social demonic series of panels, organized by Maria Ivanova in collaboration with @janmachielsen.bsky.social and @stefanovil.bsky.social! 😈😈😈

#academicsky #skystorians

And immediately after the roundtable join us for an exciting panel on elite women's practices, examining material culture and exchange, equestrian practices and communication of royal majesty, and the roles of ambassadorial daughters in Spanish embassies! #RenSA26 #Rsa2026 #earlymodern

Join us today at #RenSA26 #RSA2026 for a roundtable on #earlymodern materiality, material culture, and emerging methodologies! What am I going to talk about? Diplomacy and women (what else?) but questioning how transportability and movement impacted gift-giving.
