While looking for biographic information on the individuals in my #Strathclyde research project I found this amazing portrait of the Bisdom family… one of the sons in the portrait is a member of the #59men.

If my idea for the final project in the #Strathclyde postgraduate diploma program is accepted, I need to do #genealogy research on 59 men, who were officer in the English Reformed Church in #Amsterdam between 1700 and 1764. I am looking forward to it! Actually, I cannot wait to start... perhaps I can do some preparations during summer break?

The search for "John of Nicaea": adventures in Byzantine prosopography
John of Nicaea is not known to the World-Wide Web. A search for this author, whom I mentioned in my last post, was quite futile. So I began to think about how I might find someone from the 9th or 11-12th century, potentially. The CPG ends around the time of John Damascene,...

I've been enjoying 'The Granddaughters of Edward III' by #KathrynWarner, thanks to a review copy from #NetGalley. Two queens, several scandals, descendants with competing claims leading to the #WarsOfTheRoses. Many history books focus on half the population; examining what we know of the women provides new perspective. 🧵 1/

James Baillie of Universität Wien explains how he is using digital tools and prosopography - the student of human networks - to understand the medieval kingdom of Georgia.

Hello, here's my #Introduction.
Research mainly focused on #prosopography & social #networks of military service, esp. 14th cent England: patterns of recruitment; character of #armies & #warfare across Europe & beyond. Recently applying these methods to the #maritime sphere: England’s merchant fleet & #naval forces during the 100 Years War. Plan to return to: the place of #battle in the fabric of late medieval warfare, and perhaps also to medieval #Hungary. For broader interests, see bio above.
