Thanks for sharing, Cathryn. Looking forward to listening. You might also be interested in a podcast called Drafting the Past! They quite frequently discuss writing trade books / writing for wider audiences. It's fabulous. Nelson was the very first contributor. :) draftingthepast.com/podcast-epis...

Chris Donaldson (Lancaster Uni) & James Maclaine (Natural History Museum, London) offer a "Tale of Two (Stuffed) Fish" to explore qs of knowledge production & taxonomies. They invite us "to rethink the geographical assumptions that often govern the study of national pasts."

Susan Oliver takes a close look at a familiar sight of the Scottish coast - the Bass Rock. She shows how natural philosophers, writers, & artists in the late C18th & early C19th 'embodied what we now regard as interdisciplinary approaches to knowledge'.

Thanks to Marie Sklodowska-Curie funding, we were able to commission the wonderful Christina Riley to reflect on what Romanticism might mean to the C21st artist. Her illustrated essay on 'Fragments of Romance' is a tender piece on place. image caption below!
