Early modernist researching migration controls in seventeenth-century England.

Not a fan of borders.
Happy to say that my recently completed PhD thesis 'Identification Documents and the Governance of Mobilities in,through and beyond Seventeenth-Century London' is now available to download online open-access if anyone ever fancies having a read etheses.whiterose.ac.uk/id/eprint/37...

Very interesting document from today's visit to Brotherton Cutural Collections: a translated (German-English) printed copy of a passport issued to a Protestant exile from Salzburg in 1731, included within a 1732 book containing several other translated documents related to the expulsion

Finding out that (shockingly) the knowledge I gained from writing a PhD thesis on seventeenth-century identification documents does not in fact transfer to attempting to navigate the unnecessarily complex process of trying to update a UK passport when you're a dual national in 2025
