The FEATHERS conference in Leiden last week was absolutely fantastic, full of excellent papers and truly interdisciplinary conversation. Thank you to the FEATHERS team for organising, and for giving me the opportunity to participate!

🚨FT Permanent Job 🚨 My department is hiring a lecturer (B/B) in 18th-c. Irish history, with the desire for someone whose research and teaching pertains to the Irish 'long eighteenth century (1690-1830)...and broader international, political and intellectual context of the period.' 🗃️

Also from today's jaunt into the Princeton Special Collections. Will somebody *please* come and do a PhD with me on ownership & usage of early modern language-learning books? Obviously very open to generous funding for such a project (and collaborating with libraries & special collections!)
