We're dipping into Urquhart's translation of Rabelais' Pantagruel this week, including his catalogue of fictional books. Still wondering if The Prickle of Wine and The Spur of Cheese would make good reading for a Commonplace wine and cheese night (see you on Thurs 5pm in GR03)

Really excited to be launching and co-convening Commonplace Cambridge, a reading and research group for early modern graduate students. I’ll be leading the first session of our reading group on Anne Southwell, giving me the perfect excuse to spend more time delving into her commonplace book:)

Thank you so much to the organisers and fellow presenters at the Women's Scientific Literatures conference: two days of incredibly stimulating papers and discussion. Now I have a reading list as long as my arm of early modern women writers to discover😌

I’m really looking forward to the Women’s Scientific Literatures conference taking place at Anglia Ruskin next week. Come along if you’re in Cambridge for what promises to be a stimulating programme about the poetics and philosophies of early modern women🌿
