If I were a person in the past writing a document that may be looked at by historians one day I would simply have legible handwriting

Senior professors - if you want to help your junior colleagues in these times, I am begging you, review our papers. I have done 25 manuscript reviews in the last 6 years. But my own manuscript is stalled out waiting for reviewers. Relatedly, I won't be doing any more reviews until tenure. 🧪

Timeless sibling interaction on International Women’s Day. The oldest sister Lucia (left) smugly winning, the middle sister Minerva (right) wondering how, & the youngest sister Europa (center) giggling at her sister’s expense. Painted by their talented artist sister Sofonisba Anguissola in 1555.

A brightly colored painting of the sisters playing chess in period clothes as per the description in the post. National
Museum, Poznań, Poland, oil on canvas, image in the public domain.

Happy #WomensHistoryMonth! Celebrate by treating yourself to Art Herstory's blank lined journal, created to commemorate the 400th anniversary (in Nov 2025) of Sofonisba Anguissola's passing in 1625. Available at artherstory.net/product/sofo... www.etsy.com/listing/4383...

An Art Herstory Sofonisba Anguissola journal inside an elaborate gold colored frame with roses in each corner. "Women's History Month" is inscribed in a kind of cartouche inserted just above the bottom of the frame.

My blog for the @uniofstandrews.bsky.social Library Special Collections went live yesterday! It's a very short glimpse of the thousands of women whose lives I've been researching over the last 16 months.

Parents insist their kids go to college to get business degrees. Administrators respond by defunding the humanities and social sciences, while hiring business profs at ~2X what historians get paid. Meanwhile, businesses say over and over that they want to hire humanities and social science majors.

While I'm trying to figure out which platform to use for longer-form blog posts (recommendations welcome!), here's a short piece from a tangent I went on during dissertation research: What happened to orphaned seventeenth-century Dutch children? www.instagram.com/p/DFJDDvYS7y...

Being a historian means having your phone autocorrect "Merry Christmas" to "Merry Wiesner-Hanks". A very Merry Wiesner-Hanks to you all! #AcademicSky #WhatsHistory #Medieval #EarlyModern

What exactly is 'agency'? And how has women's agency figured in early modern cultural and economic history in recent decades? These are good questions! Happily, Merry Wiesner-Hanks has turned herself to the task of answering them in her article in issue 40.2 . muse.jhu.edu/pub/62/artic...
