Blog post: today it's on ideas of sound as mediator between individual and environment, drawing on Stratoudakis and Papadimitriou (2007), and looking at that 1614 Thalbach snowball fight as an example

blogged today, on a convent sister at Thalbach who becomes Maisterin. She kept a diary, much of which was incorporated into the Convent Chronicle -- and she gives us a lot of details about the world around her. Have a read if you like!

Charles HarperOn my recent trip to the City of Bath I saw this painting. It was found in the stores of the Holburne Museum in Bath and was identified as being by the Flemish artist Pieter Brueghel the Younger.
The painting, titled ‘Wedding Dance in the Open Air’ was previously thought to be the work of a copyist or follower, but it has been dated to 1607-14 and is now on permanent display.

Editing like it’s 1607! That Ursula Eggin, she wanted to Get Her Point Across!
I love the massive rewrite between draft and clean copy — whole paragraphs gone and inserted, wording changes, lots of deletions… #editing #histodons #17thc
