I’m delighted to share that I have received an Early Career Fellowship Grant from the Royal Historical Society! This support will allow me to finalise the book proposal for my project: 'Creeds of Kinship: Anna Kingsford, Henry Salt, and the Animals that Shaped Modern Ethics'.

Great to see this published! Huge thanks to all the authors — it was a pleasure to help edit some of the pieces. Issue 8 also marks the end of my time on the RRR board. It’s been a wonderful three years working with such brilliant colleagues.

I’ve written a piece on the curious lack of media and political interest in the issues faced by our national @britishlibrary.bsky.social. This is strange given we live in a world where ideas, knowledge and research are a long-term source of innovation and insight www.cityam.com/the-british-...

The British library is in crisis: why does nobody care?

The widespread indifference to the British Library's crippling cyberattack demonstrates a perilous failure to value the knowledge infrastructure vital for national prosperity

Today is the 145th deathday of Rufus the guinea pig, one of Anna Kingsford's animal companions. In my thesis, I argue that her grief over his death contributed to her growing turn towards an esoteric mysticism and her belief in the immortality of animal souls.

Fig. 1 illustrates a novel approach to research supervision focussed on practical space-based methodologies in history, drawing on insights from peripatetic philosophy. Sadly, @peteryeandle.bsky.social, @danielbreeze.com, and I won’t win awards, as it just looks like some guys on a hike.

Delighted to see this project come to life! I first heard about it from Cezary when we met at a conference last year, and it’s fantastic to now see his collection of Henry Salt translations published.

I was honoured to present a paper this morning at the British Society for the History of Philosophy conference at Cambridge. The theme — Animals and the Environment in the History of Philosophy — is generating rich and timely discussions. Grateful to be taking part.

Do any fellow 19th-cent historians or Victorianists know if Bradlaugh's National Reformer (1860-93) is digitised anywhere online?

My review of Jeremy Burchardt's "Lifescapes" (CUP) for @socialhistsoc.bsky.social is now available online. An exemplary historical study of the emotional and physical experience of landscape. It's a wondrous book, contemplative and empathetic throughout. doi.org/10.1080/1478...

Good find this morning in Bakewell at Hawkridge Books. It's funny, the owner said, sometimes you have books for years and sometimes you only have them for a week. He had only had this one for a week. I told him I was writing about Carpenter in my PhD. Best of luck, he said.
