Winner: Rosalind Rothwell, Duke University
โBringing โhappiness to astrologers who wish to know the timeโ: Caste, clocks, and sovereignty in eighteenth-century French Indiaโ
I'm thrilled to have received the Natalie Zemon Davis Award from @sfhs.bsky.social for my paper on Tamil consumers, caste, and mechanical timepieces in 18C Pondicherry. NZD is such an inspiration to early modernists and it's a huge honor to receive this award!

That time, ~400 years ago, when Jesuits dragged a new world turkey nearly 2,000 kilometers from Goa to northern India.
Fun, but also reflective of premodern India's integration in global networks of trade and travel.
