I had not noticed that, at long last, my review of Janet Polasky's important but flawed Asylum Between Nations had been published in the December 2024 issue of Comparativ.

Here it is:

A tous les collègues européens/ to all European colleagues:
Voici une tribune, de la part de Rogue ESR, qu'il faut signer. Nous ne pouvons contrer l'internationale fasciste qu'internationalement, avant de mener la lutte at home, face à la violence de l'attaque qui a lieu, à bas bruit, en ce moment.

My latest article has just been published in the History of European Ideas journal.

I explore what could have been an Irish popular republic in 1795-1796 had the French expedition succeeded, and therefore propose a re-assessment of the secret society of the Defenders.
‘“Love, liberty, and loyalty”: unearthing the Defenders’ popular project for the ‘Republic of the United States of France and Ireland’ (1795–6)
When Theobald Wolfe Tone arrived in France in February 1796, intent on securing French help to win Irish independence from England and to establish a republic in Ireland, his greatest challenge was...

I have been updating my profile on HAL (HyperArticles en Ligne), the French open archive platform developed by the CNRS. It appears that my three latest publications (others are in the pipeline) are reviews. I already shared my review on Laurent Colantonio's book yesterday. Here is another one:
Making empire: Ireland, imperialism, and the early modern world

This posthumous essay by Natalie Zemon Davis, about how being politically persecuted by her government & having her passport stripped affected her historical scholarship, is really amazing. I'd missed it coming out in Sept. Thanks to @ebrandom.bsky.social for posting it.
