Yesterday was the birthday of Cardinal Antoine Perrenot de Granvelle, a surprisingly important figure in the history of #EarlyModern worship and #BookHistory. So I wrote a blogpost in his honour!

Hi fellow #histodons! Since I’m moving towards mastodon I thought I’d introduce myself properly.

I’m a cultural historian of music and books, with a particular focus on the relationships between music, worship, and identities in times of upheaval.

My current Marie Skłodowska-Curie project investigates how musical saints’ cults connected Lutherans and Catholics despite the rupture of the #Reformation.

Other research areas include #MusicPrinting, #MusicalBookHistory, #BookHistory, #CounterReformation #Ecumenicism, #CulturalHeritage, the musical lives of #Beguines, and … #CallTheMidwife (#nuntastic).

Looking forward to connecting with other @bookhistodons, @histodons, @bookstodon!
