Had a great time at Warwick yesterday, thanks to superb hosts @naomipullin.bsky.social & Guido van Meersbergen, as well as brilliant colleagues and PhD researchers. Such an exciting environment for early modern research, and I presume the weather is always that good too.

Also, now there’s more of us on here: this is why we keep underscoring the value of #Medieval & #EarlyModern studies. #Skystorians
The premodern world held possibilities and imagined futures: the physical and metaphysical systems that were actively built and contested then continue to inform the world in the present.
