Very interesting reflection profiting of JCI'sautobiography. Nevertheless, I would not say that the best biography of Felipe V is Henry Kamen. I liked more the last book of Christopher Stores

Yesterday Carlotta Sorba and I were delighted to host Giulia Calvi as guest speaker at our Cultural History Seminar. Our PhD researchers discussed with her bodies and appearances as key to globalization and resistances, as well as how to interpret visual sources.

Beyond the amazing work with slavery and afrodescendientes heritage on the city, they have recovered amazing stories. That is the case of the statue of Santo Antonio which was made soldier, and made it's own cursus hoborum along the eighteenth century.

But what is amazing is how this triggered a renew way to approach to their local history. Their museography is very critical with classical narratives, and well based on historical reseach. Their archeological methods shows the impact of the Earthquake of 1755.

It has been amazing to discover the municipal museum of Lagos (Portugal), and more specificall, their museum of slavery. They were pioneer in discussing it at a national level, and still their musseography is compelling

This just frightened me. How is it possible that these kind of debates take place in the Spanish Parliament?

Cover of Inhabitants of the Deep: The Blueness of Blackness by Jonathan Howard. The cover features a dark blue background with a painted image of a Black figure in a sheer white garment on the right-hand side. The figure appears to be deep underwater, based on the patterns of refracted light on the figure's body. On the left-hand side is a distorted reflection of the figure, as though seen from above the water's surface.
In "Inhabitants of the Deep," Jonathan Howard theorizes blackness as an inhabitance of oceans, rivers, lakes, and other deep spaces where black ecological life can thrive. Read the intro for free now. #BlackStudies #ReadUP buff.ly/22ZokD8

We are going to need more historians working with political ecology, as Spanish policies against the climatic change effects shows.
