Thinking of all our friends and colleagues at Brown University. This craziness has to stop.

The vast body of research that Ken Burns relied upon to make his new documentary on the American Revolution would be practically impossible to be produced today, what with the defunding of humanistic scholarship, the collapse of stable academic jobs, the attack on public history & academic freedom.🗃️

We can't wait!

Great idea! We love connections. Any takers in Germany?

📢NEW MANY HEADED MONSTER POST📢

A series of posts to celebrate the publication of a really important new study of work in #EarlyModern England, by Jane Whittle, Mark Hailwood, Hannah Robb, Taylor Aucoin.

Just off to fetch a 'burden of wood'. 🪵🪵🪵🪵🪵 🗃️

I love the literal depiction of a loose tongue!

A detail from a German pamphlet showing three male human heads: a Turk, A Hungarian, and a German. All heads have three mouths and you can see the tongues. The pamphlet was printed in 1605 and will be highlighted in more detail in my upcoming book about early modern news.

Gossiping is both an art and an annoying practice. In #earlymodern Europe, a gossipmonger would often be depicted as a person with three mouths. Like these three fellas that made it on a title page of a pamphlet in 1605, a Turk, a Hungarian, and a German. #skystorians #gossip
