@DarkSheepArts @histodons Ooh, I'll keep an eye out. I have a friend who work on early modern witchcraft in the theatre, but it's after 2am here and she'll be sleeping.

Eight marvelous and melancholy things I've learned about creativity - The Oatmeal

A 10 minute read.

The Oatmeal
An introduction. I am an historian of early modern Europe with a particular interest in what went on in the German lands. My research explores different aspects of scholarly culture, university history, religious conversion and print. I am currently working on a book on religious conversion among scholars in early modern Germany. I am P.I. of 'Malcontents: Order and Disorder in the Early Modern World of Learning,' a recently commenced project funded by an Irish Research Council Laureate Award (2022-26). #histodon #earlymodern
