Der Addendum finde ich peinlich aber I'll take what I can take!

Danke an die Kolleginnen die für den anderen Antrag sich engagieren haben

Im Namen aller cis-männlichen Historiker entschuldige ich mich für die Absurdität, dass man sich im Jahr 2025 über solche "TrAdITionS" immernoch streiten muss

Jeden Tag bis zum Historikertag eine Fachsektion! Heute:

Micropolitics of Landscape. Power and Control in the Invisible Spaces (1750–1950s)

mit: @lucowitz.bsky.social , @sebboo.bsky.social , Solveig Vanniez-Salvesen (Sektionsleitung)

Was wir glaubten, worum es bei Wissenschaft als Beruf als #IchBinHanna gehe:

Forschung.
Lehre.

Worum es wirklich geht:

Immer wieder nach je anderen Kriterien die eigenen Unterlagen neu zusammenstellen & formatieren, um Anforderungen von Bewerbungs-, Antrags- & Evaluationsverfahren zu genügen.

Kleiner Reminder, dass der Koalitionsvertrag der Bundesregierung Reform des #WissZeitVG bis Mitte 2026 verspricht! Da muss also sehr bald was passieren. Durch das BVerfG-Urteil zum #BerlHG gewinnt das Ganze an zusätzlicher Dringlichkeit. Wissenschaft als Beruf in D braucht Perspektiven! #IchBinHanna

Die CDU ist eine Verbotspartei, die ideologisch alles, womit sie nicht einverstanden ist, als Ideologie darstellt.
Klientelpolitik. Stammtischpolitik.

Guter Zeitpunkt, um einen Blogbeitrag erneut zu veröffentlichen, den ich mit @smittermeier.bsky.social verfasst habe.

I used to watch Terra X every sunday as a kid, so it was a real pleasure to join an episode of this ZDF documentary series as an expert. A fascinating dive into the hidden histories of Venice—on very (very) popular ground. Watch my sixty seconds in three bits here: www.zdf.de/play/dokus/t...

CDU-Chef instrumentalisiert rechten Mord: Wo war Friedrich Merz als Walter Lübcke ermordet wurde?

Tausende gingen auf die Straße, als Lübcke getötet wurde. Merz warf Linken nun trotzdem Nichtstun vor. Eine taz-Recherche zeigt: Er unternahm wohl selber nichts.

Guardian Headline: I knew one say I'd have to watch powerful men burn the world down - I just didn't expect them to be such losers (by Rebecca Shaw). With an image of Mark Zuckerberg.

Highly recommended when you're interested in modernity as an emic category across diverse contexts; Kolland reveals its semantic indeterminacy and performative nature in both Western and non-Western intellectual circles.

A judging cat. Greyish, shocked, beautiful.

Saturday afternoon. I haven’t read any research in 48 hours, but no one seems to suspect a thing...

Absolutely, I agree—it’s very stylish :) - This paper (✨⚓) appears frequently in Rome in the 1720s. I couldn’t trace its exact origin, but similar watermarks are common in the Veneto, so I suppose it might have come from there.

Great session with students today, working hands-on with things/artifacts/material sources. A strong reminder of how important the tactile side of history is (and how much I love it)—something we should perhaps emphasize more, even in traditional history programs. #history #earlymodern #skystorians

Thoughtprovoking meeting of 'Dingwissen' network at the Humboldt Forum today: Dep. Dir. Alexis von Poser led us to reflect on authenticity, originality, models – and whether a Samoan mat, traditionally placed on the floor, should be allowed to be displayed hanging. #sensoryhistory #skystorians
