A great experience to attend the #GCFHSResist! Amazing to have presented my paper on 16th century Sens with
@sianhibbert.bsky.social, Sukhwan Kang, and Allan Tulchin on our 'Religious Tension, Resistance, and Opposition in EM France' panel. Truly thankful to meet/catch-up with other academics!

Thanks @wadehistory.bsky.social ! it was such a great panel to have been a part of! Thanks to everyone for listening and providing feedback! #GCFHSResist

#RenSoc25 last week was 👌🏼👌🏼 I was fortunate to speak on a lovely panel with @gvb1554.bsky.social and others all about women and litigation in the early modern world. Now to get ready for the Global Consortium for French Historical Studies in Paris next week! @sfhs.bsky.social @srsrensoc.bsky.social

So excited to be in Bristol for @srsrensoc.bsky.social this week! Catch me tomorrow morning (panel 2.3) chatting all things early modern French violence, social networks, and women’s enmities #frenchhistory #RenSoc25

So happy to report that I passed my viva yesterday with minor corrections! Huge thanks to my examiners Simon Ditchfield and @tombhamilton.bsky.social for a thoroughly enjoyable discussion, and to my supervisor @civsoc.bsky.social for all of his help and guidance! #PhDone #earlymodern #frenchhistory

We're counting down to 2025 because in 2025 we get to all meet again!

In Bristol this time. Who's joining us there? And are you in our starter pack yet? #RenSoc25

Hello! I've taken it upon myself to create a starter pack for people working in the field of the history of crime in France and the French empire. Please share and let me know if you'd like to be added.

Giving the starter pack for people interested in early modern women another little boost. Lots of great scholars here! go.bsky.app/Cqqbspt

Turns out it may have been a mistake to leave writing the introduction of my thesis until after I had my baby… it has been 6 months and my brain is refusing to cooperate 😅 tips for an effective intro welcome! #skystorians #earlymodern #frenchhistory

How long would your commute take in 1680? Mine would be about a day and a half.

@camunicampop.bsky.social has a brilliant tool for calculating travel times in Roman, 1680, 1830, 1911 and 2024. 🗃️

This feels like the moment for big announcements and a safe space in which to do so. So, huge news:

After literally months of deliberation, History Today has decided to adopt the Oxford comma.

Word of the Day, should you need it, is ‘latibulate’, a 17th-century verb meaning to find a corner somewhere and hide in it.

So happy to be presenting my paper ‘Social Networks and Women’s Enmities in Early Modern France, 1680-1720’ at next year’s @srsrensoc.bsky.social conference in Bristol! #SRS25
