Find yourself someone who looks at you the same way I look at my paper on Servetus. Thank you, UEA and @memrn.bsky.social for having me again this year!

Thrilled to be interviewed by the Timpul newspaper, one of the oldest running newspapers in Romania. Attached, a 19th c edition of it.

I'll be speaking about my academic journey thus far and the key to success as a foreigner in various environments.

Showing my face here after a hectic while. It's been a pleasure to give a quick paper at Queen Mary during the 2nd Colloquium on Late Medieval and Early Modern Cities in Europe. I focused on *shocked face* anti-Trinitarians in Cluj/Kolozsvar/Klausenburg

Now that my first research trip is over, I wanted to share that I've decided to donate some archival equipment to the Cluj Regional Archives for the use of future researchers like myself. Hopefully the donation will reach them soon 💗

Some pictures from the @chase-dtp.bsky.social Bookscapes workshop. Meeting mainly old friends ranging from theology, alchemy, a dash of science, and Hungarian history. Will (hopefully) make some blog posts soon about it.
