Does the Archives de Nantes website open for anyone? It doesn’t load for me, and friends in Brazil say the same. Could anyone in Europe (or, even better, in France) check, just to confirm? Has anyone ever used it?

Een ‘zondvloedland,’ zo karakteriseerde ik het beeld van de Lage Landen in 17de- en 18de-eeuwse geleerde natuurgeschiedenissen. Het denken over het verleden van de Aarde bewoog tussen Bijbelse zondvloed en de volgende dijkdoorbraak, tussen schriftgeleerden en turfstekers. 1/

What should I read about French and English economic policy (“mercantilism”) in the second half of the seventeenth-century, particularly regarding (what else?) sugar and tobacco? I’ve read some old and new works, but I’m sure I’m missing many. @wadehistory.bsky.social @roperlou.bsky.social

Say hello to INSIDE ABSTRACTION: INTERPRETING INKA VISUAL CULTURE, on shelves now! 🧵

This exploration of #Inka visual culture takes a new stance, and proposes that Abstract Inka art is not meant to be decoded, nor does it have hidden messages.
