The cover of a book. Text reads TEXTILE SHAKESPEARE. The illustration is of black and white embroidery of flowers, fruit, and animals; it's sitting on a blue and white William Morris print cushion.
The table of contents of a book. The chapter titles read Stuff, Linen, Leather/Wool, Silk, Inky Cloak, Sew, Cut, Fold, Ruff.
Somewhat astonishingly, here it is, a book, a thing in the world... More, including acknowledgements, soon❤️

A real honour to publish this in the Historical Journal. Thanks so much to Stefan Hanß for all his work in bringing it to print, and to the late, great Natalie Zemon Davis for these extraordinary reflections on scholarship and persecution. www.cambridge.org/core/journal...

Wonderful to see this new piece from Natalie Zemon Davis, with forward by Stefan Hanß #OpenAccess #EarlyModern 🗃️
