TIL that Muriel St Claire Byrne, editor of the Lisle letters, was also a graduate of Somerville College Oxford (my alma mater) in this nice piece by How To History

Renaissancemenschen hatten es schwer in diesen (früh)modernen Zeiten!

A fantastic poster for what looks like an amazing exhibition on Renaissance heraldry in France. (Though I won't be flying half way round the world to see it in person!)
Very curious as to what the artifact is, though. Doesn't seem to be a clock or calendar as the dial goes up to 18.
There also seems to be a mistake in the Latin, it should be "orbem" surely, not "orben".
This motto (donec totum impleat orbem) is very similar to that of my alma mater, Somerville College (donec rursus impleat orbem)

Palaeography and popular culture:
I was just watching episode 4 of Shipwreck Hunters Australia on Disney+, in which they are diving the wreck site of The Trial, an East India Company ship which sank off the coast of Australia in 1622.
Towards the end they showed a couple of manuscripts with the accounts of the survivors, and I will admit to pausing the episode to read part of one out loud to my wife.

Tooters! Your mission, should you choose to accept it, is to rustle up a free to use #EarlyModern / #EarlyModon woodcut or engraving that says “difficult pasts” but in a way that is not gory, racist, macabre, or likely to put people off their coffee.

Very much enjoyed Alexander the Great: The Making of a Myth exhibition #BritishLibrary & to see him in #earlymodon incarnation taming man-eating horses, exploring under the sea in a diving Bell with a chicken & cat & with wee tusks like a boar... a man of many parts.... Well worth a visit & a lovely treat...

I can tell there's a pretty heavy load on the servers today because the tooting has been a bit spotty. @slevelt

help me, my expertise ends in the 17th century; is this animal in the late 18th century still #earlymodon, or is it more #enlightodon, or even just #modon

Today I'll finish preparing my talk for next weekend's conference Die Großmacht Spanien im Rhein-Maas Raum von 1580 bis 1630. Niederländische und deutsche Perspektiven in #Roermond :
Wie aus Aachenern Geusen wurden und aus Spanien der Feind der Aachener Religionsverwandten
What did the people of #Aachen know about the Spanish?
Could religious conflict be considered a ‚Spanish Art‘?
