An equally exciting fact about this - I did a publishing internship with Peter Lang in 2015 during my MSt @engfac.bsky.social and it’s amazing to be published in one of their collections 10 years later! 📚 ✍️

Delighted with my copy of Peter Lang ‘Where Love Happens: Changing Social Practices of Love in the Long Nineteenth-Century. My chapter is on #love, loss, and #spiritualism in texts by Florence Marryat, Oliver Lodge & the Brownings. Thanks to Helene Grøn, Lene Østermark-Johansen & Victoria de Rijke!

Lovely autumnal views from my office on campus @unibirmingham.bsky.social 🍁

Epidemics in Word and Imagination: Ukrainian Literature Between Folklore, the Press, and Science “…epidemics are never only about pathogens. They are also filtered through the words of newspapers, proclamations, and popular accounts — words that, like folk tales, provided framework…

We have an insightful new blog post from Dmytro Yesypenko about the role of folklore and epidemics in nineteenth-century #Ukranian literature #hstm #histmed #litsci #medhums: mediaepidemics.com/2025/08/29/e...

Fascinating hearing about the highly gendered visual and textual marketing and media representations of the Polidin vaccine in Romania (first marketed as an influenza cure, then a panacea) where female scientists were depicted as industrious yet unnamed #hstm #histsci #histmed #medhums

The Media and Epidemics team and @dremilyvincent.bsky.social really enjoyed presenting at the @euchanse.bsky.social #WeAreCHANSE conference, meeting humanities & social sciences researchers from across Europe to see how digital culture has (& continues to) transform over time @horizoneu.bsky.social

A free online conference (Oct 2-3rd) organised by Bernard Lightman and Sarah Qidwai on #C19 royal asiatic societies and nineteenth-century science. See on @cncsi.bsky.social here: cn-csi.com/conferences/... #hstm

Our project was represented by @dremilyvincent.bsky.social who focused on the necessary diversity of our sources (from historic newspapers, to postage stamps) for examining the range of lived #pandemic experiences and how our research of the past can prepare us for pandemic futures #hstm #medhums

I’ll be presenting our team’s findings later this afternoon 🎉 🇵🇱

I’m looking forward to presenting our findings on historic epidemics and technologies of communication on behalf of @mediaandepidemics.bsky.social at the @euchanse.bsky.social conference in Kraków on Monday! 🇵🇱 #hstm #histsci #litsci #epidemics #pandemic #medhums
