Shop windows tell the story of London’s revolutionary illustrated newspapers A corner shop in central London has recently been turned into an exhibition space, and is currently exploring the history of 19th-century printers who worked in the area.

Really chuffed to get our exhibition reviewed by the legendary Ian Visits! We’ve been following his lead on all things London for years www.ianvisits.co.uk/articles/sho...

fantastic as always @oldfortunatus.bsky.social, talking at @ihr.bsky.social on slavery and the ’invention of rare books’, who I paraphrase here: “We think that people who care about books are fundamentally good people, separate from other forms of accumulation… but I want to suggest otherwise”

Posters are up! 🎉

Cover of book with text in yellow reading: The Firearm Revolution: From Renaissance Italy to the European Empires, overlaid on an image of an angel in seventeenth-century dress with wings and a long gun.

Hello Bluesky! My new book, THE FIREARM REVOLUTION, is out on 14 April. It’s about how a new technology changed society, and how hard it was to control. Here’s a little thread of what’s inside:

Written Worlds: Non-Elite Writers in Early Modern England Who wrote in early modern England? What did they write and why did they write it? How did their writing fit into the wider worlds that they inhabited? In this talk, Sue Wiseman, Brodie Waddell and Michael Powell Davies – all from Birkbeck University of London – will address these questions by introducing their ongoing Leverhulme-funded collaborative project on non-elite writers in England from c.1570 to 1730. Our research explores the writing practices of people below the level of the gentry and clergy, considering their biographical contexts, their motivations and their contributions to written culture. In addition to giving a bird’s eye view of the sorts of writers and texts we are studying, each of the three speakers will discuss a couple of specific examples of particular writers, including the notebooks of a midland villager, the spiritual diary a London wigmaker, and the confessions of a condemned widow.

'Written Worlds: Non-Elite Writers in Early Modern England'

Sue Wiseman, Michael Powell-Davies and I will be introducing our five-year collaborative project at the @ihr.bsky.social on Thursday, March 5th. Hope to see you there!
