Lightning at sea in the 18th and 19th centuries Dr Sara Caputo's EGR Taylor lecture 2025 will discuss how lightning shaped the maritime world drawing on sources from Britain and western Europe.

Fascinating work of Dr. Sara Caputo will be discussed online next Weds evening (6:30pm London time)! My #posthumanistic research has been quite inspired by her views on the #tracks on the water and on #seacharts. www.rgs.org/events/upcom...

Oh hey! Lovely seeing my book in the shop of the National Maritime Museum, near those of friends Michael Barritt and @meganbar.bsky.social (among others). The book is not new but delighted to encounter it in the wild in the UK for the first time. #maphistory #seacharts
