Spread the word! New application schedule for Lewis Walpole Library Fellowships & Travel Grants Applications for the 2025-26 Fellowship year will now be accepted beginning 1 JUNE & the application deadline is 1 NOVEMBER info: walpole.library.yale.edu/fellowships/vi… apply: apply.interfolio.com/142501

I'm delighted to announce the OA publication of my (first!) article, 'Absent parents, sick children, and epistolary relationships in England, c.1640-c.1750' in The History of the Family journal online (The History of the Family): tandfonline.com/doi/full/10.10…

Article titles can be hard. A narrative title is always a good choice: long titles lead the reader into the essay. Search algorithms will not find a pithy or punny title, but compelling key-words/phrases will get attention. Tip: glean parts of the title from your abstract. #AcWri

Anyone have a good example of criticism (literary or, eg, philosophy that takes up literature) that speculates about what a fictional character might have done differently? (The thing we often ask students not to do.)
