New book coming from @boydellandbrewer.bsky.social , ed. by @marcusmeer.bsky.social and me: a starry international cast of contributors exploring image-breaking in medieval politics and society (as well as religion) - a big, neglected topic with much to tell us. boydellandbrewer.com/book/iconocl...

Delighted to see the @ghilondon.bsky.social published a blog post by @gabpassabi.bsky.social and me on our @dfg.de project 'Money, History, and Moral Economies: Communicative Functions of Monetary Information in the Institutional Historiography of the Later Middle Ages’! ghil.hypotheses.org/8934

Carlo Ginzburg has just passed away. There is little I can add in memory of a scholar of his stature. I'll recall only what he said during a fortunate conversation at the Betty Behrens Seminar in Cambridge: “Read everything. Your research path will find its way". And I live by that advice.

It's not just #MedievalMonday – we've got a whole week of #MedievalHistory ahead of us! Tomorrow, Maximilian Schuh will continue our series on environmental history with a talk on 'Demesne Accounts, Court Rolls, and Prognostic Treatises: Weather and Its Perceptions in Fourteenth-Century England'.

It was a great pleasure to meet the speakers and commentators last Friday. Thanks again to the GHIL‘s team for making it happen. I am looking forward to the next Medieval Germany Workshop in 2028 already!
